After I started my blog a whole new world of collecting opened up to me, I found the blog of Sir Thrift A Lot, who introduced me to Pyrex and pop culture memorabilia. He hosts a weekly link party titled Thriftasaurus, click over and join his fun party.
Jill from the blog A Little Bit of Everything, enthusiasm for Vera scarves has started my newest collection.
There are many blogs that have inspired and educated me on different subjects that are now a part of my daily reading routine. Bloggers thank you for taking the time to sit down and write your blogs that have touched my heart, made me laugh, taught me a skill, be it cooking, sewing, or crafting. I appreciate each and every one of you.
This weeks thrift finds were inspired by the two bloggers I mentioned earlier, Sir Thrift A Lot and Jill.
I couldn't resist this Portland pattern pitcher! Look at the handle and the rim of this heavy pitcher, beautiful. The look of lemonade inside the pitcher is provided by a Vera tea towel, cute, cute, cute.
Notice Vera's signature lady bug on the right lemon?
Cute graphics surround a Lemon Meringue Pie
recipe on this Vera tea towel.
I found a few Vera scarves that caught my eye at an estate sale. I am looking forward to Valentines day when I can use the red and white heart scarf, it's my favorite one.
I'm often found at these link parties;
Apron Thrift Girl for Thrift Share Monday
Sir Thrift A lot for Thriftasaurs
A Living Space for The Nifty Thrifty
Hey, Mom What's for Dinner for The Penny Worth Project

What a novel way of showing your pitcher with the lemon towel inside!

ReplyDeletePaulette, the pitcher is gorgeous and I love the tea towel in it! I also love to find things for my Grandson thrifting. It's how I can get most of the goodies I give him. Diann and I thank you for joining TTF this week! Great finds on the Vera scarfs!

I love the lines of that pitcher -- just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pitcher! I bet it's nice and heavy, too.
ReplyDeleteI love the Vera lemon tea towel. I really rarely see Vera towels or scarves; guess that's why they're so collectible. Nice finds!
