I went to Goodwill the other day and came home with a few treasures. I thought I would share them with you.
I found this darling cherub. She was up at the cashier area. I thought someone had put her there to hold her but I was excited when I found out she had not been spoken for. She is made out of painted wood. She will be perfect for the bird cage garden I'm going to make.
I also found this cute little Valentine's Day tea pot. I thought it would be fun to use if I ever do a Valentine's Day tea party.
I may have a small one with just Trinity and one of her friends. I thought it would be darling to serve little sandwiches cut out in the shape of hearts. Some yummy fresh strawberries, that are now out in the stands on the corners. Then have little cupcakes with pink icing and hearts on them.
I was thrilled when I found this silver tray. It was tarnished but not super bad. I liked the way it looked and was going to keep it that way until I noticed the mark on the bottom. I ended up looking it up on the Internet and almost screamed when I found out this was a sterling silver tray and not just plated. Wow! Talk about a bargain! I only paid $2.99 for it and it's worth WAY more then that.
Since it was real silver, I quickly polished it up and now it's shinny and looks new again.
The last thing I found was this old china cake plate. I love the flowers on it. It doesn't say but I think they are hand painted. All in all it was a wonderful day for the thrift store.
