See the blue and white tea cup?

Then the pink and black plate with the dragon fly.


I like my ornaments to be subtle I don't personally like lawn ornaments. I like to be able to find them in hidden places and spots with no colour for added interest.
SO these now are what we found that trip. I was not impressed with any of the Thrift shops, they were very busy and I didn't find much. What I did find was a lot cheaper than at my fav shop, but then I knew their prices were high. I found two hand painted china plates made in Bavaria. They were 3 dollars each. Not sure I can use those in the garden they are just too pretty



At another shop, more plates. This time one dollar each. Both had a butterfly theme so great for the garden.

So what else, oh yes I found this yellow vase. Not at all sure what I will do with this its sort of delicate,

Then the last thing for just a dollar and something I wanted for the garden was a hanging basket

Another success with not so much spent this time thank goodness

They are so pretty. I can't wait to have a home with room for a garden. Living in an apartment limits what we can do. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful plates! The ones with the butterflies will be perfect for the garden. Do you take the ornaments in for the winter I was wondering? Cute fairy standing by the violets!
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous bargains. And your garden is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYou found some pretty plates and real bargains. '-)
ReplyDeleteI love the ornaments in your garden. They do look great! I will ask the same question as Deb, do you take them in for the winter? Love your finds! Great plates! The hanging basket is excellent too! I think I would use the vase to drink out of! LOL! Hugs ;o)
ReplyDeleteAre those Deb's flowers on the table?
