My treasures from DC

When I was at the hospital with my sister, My Mom and Cora found these 2 little creamers for me....for 50 cents a piece!!

Aren't they just the cutest?! And they're little.....the 2 of them together are about the size of my fist:)

This pie plate I found at a thrift store before I left! I LOVE PUMPKIN PIE!!! My Mom always makes 2 pies~ One for me and one for everyone else! So when I saw this pan~ I knew it was meant to be!

And it's got Beautiful carnations printed in it!! And a recipe:) How lucky Could I get??
I have been starting to see these 'pans' a lot lately. I saw one for Quiche the other day, but I can't stand quiche~ So I didn't buy it! LOL!! Thinking I may have to start collecting these, too! They're just so pretty!

Then there's the material my Mom had put aside for us:) There's 2 sheets of the kitty material, so if anyone would like some, let me know! They'd make some cute mini pillows:) And those flamingos....Too funny! Loving my berries....and those beautiful Butterflies! The green flower material I picked up at a quilting store~ there was something about that flower that I really liked:)

When we were at the National Harbor, I picked up the teaspoon~ I have a few of these, so I had to add One from DC! Only seemed natural:)

....and then there's my flat coin! I love these coins, and at one time had a nice collection from across the USA.......Until someone stole them! So, I've been trying to build my collection back up....and Now I have one from

'The First Ladies at the Smithsonian'

Now that I've shared a few of my collections with you....I'm wondering what other people collect?? Do you have a favorite collection...or lots of collections??

.........Until Next Time...........

What? I couldn't help myself!

I had to go by the pharmacy yesterday....And the thrift store was calling my name...It is only a block away! And I know these aren't white, But I couldn't resist the earth tone colors! And at .99 and .75..........I couldn't pass them up!


Then I was cleaning out another cabinet and found the creamer on the left. It goes with my dishes that I've had for years. LOL, Actually started out with a 16 piece set (hand-me-down from my Step Mother when she updated her own kitchen) But would you believe I'm down to 2 dinner plates. Yes, 2. That's why I had to go buy more last week....I needed at least 5 plates for my own family....... I picked up the other creamer last week at the thrift store, too.....I love this one cause of it's girlie figure! It's very feminine!

Real Life Collections: Part 2

Another collection that I have is my colored pitchers and my white creamers. When my kids were little, My step-mom and I used to go to the outlet malls....A Lot. lol. And I don't know why I started collecting pitchers....I just liked them. I like when they're all lined up....I like the solid colors and the roundness of their bodies. I don't ever use them....I just like to look at them. I had to stop buying them when I ran out of counter space....but one day! I will find some more:)

I'm not too sure what started the creamer collection either! I just like the look of white 'jugs' all lined up... These have been put away in my cabinet for probably 8 years now....

And after finding 2 more for a dollar each at the thrift store, I had to bring them all out and clean them. It's not a big collection, yet, but it will be. And I'm not sure if I even want anymore colored one, But I do think I want more white ones, In all the sizes!

Just in case your wondering....I bought the one all the way to the right...and the second one from the left the other day....Still can't believe they were only a buck!

The Cow creamer is my favorite! The milk comes outta his mouth, lol........Reminds me of My Grandma~ She loved cows!!! And now that I'm thinking about it, it's probalbly what started it all.....

So until next time:)
