Vintage Dishes

Can you believe we've lived here for two years and 

this past weekend was my first real treasure hunt?

I mean, I've gone junking here and there but this time,

I was on a mission for specifics and I found them.

I usually set a limit on my expenditures and I was

completely ecstatic that I came home with leftover. 

I found all sorts of vintage plates and china, mostly 

mis-matched but some matchy-matchy sets too.

I think my favorite of this round was

the pink Mary Kay set.

I will be heading out again on Wednesday with 

a new junking buddy that has some hot spots

that she's willing to share (yay!). 

I recently bought some components for creating pastry stands, which I love.

I don't think I'll start on those just yet so I can see if I can find some other

pieces to go with the ones I have.

Rest assured, Mary Kay will not see the tip of a drill!

Since I'll be selling delicious sweets at 

The Market on Chapel Hill,

I thought that vintage kitchen goods and wares 

would be a great accompaniment to pastries, don't you?

I'll let you know what I find on my next rendezvous,

 hopefully cake plates, domes and crates!

Happy weekend, friends!
