I love vintage! Especially when it comes to Christmas.
Last year at MCC in Kidron I picked up these fun ivy tea cup and saucers.
SCIO Japan holiday china is my favorite of the vintage ivy Christmas dishes.
This year at MCC I found the matching plates!!! You know I was so excited!!
There were only 3 or 4, but I will take them for sure! It is fun to add to my collection.
At the same time I found this plate stand for $5.50 and the teacup holder for $5.00 I just love them.
I do realize this is probably an ornament holder and not a teacup holder...but I will use it for my teacups.
I going for the ivy dishes for Christmas. The only teacups I am buying are ones with simple ivy patterns on them. They mix and match very well.
Then a few weeks later at MCC I found the sugar and creamer!!! Someone in the Kidron area I think had an entire set...and now slowly I am buying it back from them!!!
Slowly a luncheon set is coming together for me. These will be for me to use when I have people over, not for tea parties. I am loving the thrill of the hunt!!! I want to find the teapot that is an exact match, but that might be a little tougher. But, then I never thought I would find both the sugar and creamer.
It is so fun to shop 2nd hand, you just never know that you will find.
Then in Orrville at Mission Thrift, this year, I found a tiered plate set for $2.50
Psalm 96:3
Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous works among all the peoples!
