I love joining in on this little Sunday ritual of sharing our treasures that have been given a second chance and loved for all their imperfections and history. However this week proved to be difficult as, although I had a couple of visits to some local thrift stores, I walked away empty handed. I even visited my favourite antique/furniture restorer (as I happened to passing by) and yes, I did fall in love with half of the items there - especially a gorgeous wooden and tapestry firescreen, a matching pair of church pews and some quaint little art deco drawers that were just too cute - but they are not the type of items to buy on a whim!
So although I purchased nothing this week, I thought I would share with you my ever first flea market find when I moved out of home many many years ago. And of course it is practical. I was at a local trash and treasure and spotted this little casserole dish and snapped it up for about $5. It has been used, well as a casserole dish, a fruit bowl and an onion bowl just to name a few. It has survived three house moves and I still use it today and love it!
Hoping some thrifting luck comes my way by next week. Now I'm off to check out all your treasures. Don't forget to stop by a
Sohpies if you want to join in....
