Vintage Birthday - Flea Market Finds

Those who know me well know my love for vintage goodness, be it from the local oppie or  the slightly more expensive antique store or gift shop. So when these beauties were unwrapped on my birthday this month, lets just say I was a tad excited. 


The perfect addition to my milk glass collection, this cake stand matches my fruit stand and now I have these 4 little dessert bowls to go with. Thanks Ma! 


A lovely vintage glass jar for preserving fruit. I think my use to store my clay tags is much prettier don't you think?  Thanks Jules and Sara!


And some ever so handy vintage fats from my BF's stash. Thanks Lea!

Am I a lucky girl or what? pop on over to Sophie's to see some more vintage finds.
