a taste of summer...oh and antiques!

I do not regret my/our decision to go to the Christie Antique show!

The weather was amazing - hot and sunny.

The people were (mostly) friendly

and we found a few things we were looking for!

I got a clock for my desk.

Art Deco windup.

$10

Some vintage Christmas ornaments

(the little clock above and the ones in the cup below)

$6 for 4

This yellow cup and saucer were irresistable.

Love the colour and pattern on the saucer.

I have no use for them whatsoever.

I don't collect cups.

But I couldn't say no.

$3



You may recall that a certain someone bought an enormous quantity of vases at an auction for only $5.

The one above was one of the ones that we kept.

I had assumed it was an ice bucket that had no lid.

I was right!

We found ths whole set

with 6 highball glasses for

$20

Yes, I realize that we now have two of these ice buckets but I couldn't resist buying the set.

It's very Mad Men.

Fella got a couple of books and some sautering irons

and that was about it!

There was no affordable furniture

(well - not my price range of affordable)

but it was a gorgeous day and we were very happy with our finds.

Up next!

My first TIFF!
