Had a wonderful day at Salvation Army yesterday as the temperatures soared toward 60 degrees! Here's a tableau of some of my spring-time finds:



Flower pots, floral tablecloth, and vintage pipecleaners!

They are beautiful! I love your vignette. Are the red clay pots glazed? I really like the paint effect on them. The table cloth is beautiful the shade of blue mixed with the floral sprays realllly makes me want spring here NOW!!

Hello all -- Yes, Aunt George, the pots are glazed -- too cool, eh? From France. The little painted green and white flower pots are old 50s I think -- they are stamped with the price 10 in a circle -- remember how the price would be stamped on in blue ink? They were marked $1 each, but the woman behind the desk said, Oh, I'll just charge you $1 for all of these (7 pots). Oh, OK with me!

I'll post my BEST find later. It took my breath away! KL

Those look like great deals! I too love the glaze on the big terra cotta pots! I stopped by our local goodwill today and was a bit disappointed with what they have- but hopefully this summer will bring lots of great garage sales in the area. :)
