PINK SATURDAY

Hello, and welcome to another great Pink Saturday held by Beverly of http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/2010/04/pink-saturday-april-10-2010.html. Today, I am sharing the pretty pale pink milk glass hobnail bowl I found at one of my favorite antique shops. I really scored that day, because the bowl was 28.00 with a 30% off discount. This item was a thrift store find. I love this color glass, and it has etchings on it too. The store put thick industrial scotch tape on it, all the way around, because it comes in sections. I don't think anyone knew what it was, but I did! It was 2.92 (they mark the prices weird like that) with 25% off! I couldn't get a good picture of the etchings, but you can enlarge any picture.








This is a sweet teacup I picked up when I went to my favorite tea shop with my girlfriend called Cottage By The Sea in Avon NJ. They have all kinds of eye candy. Vintage linens, teacups, jewelry, etc. They serve lunch, and we always get the sweet little finger sandwiches platter. Every attention to detail is given by the sweet hostess, Jan, and when you meet her, it's like she is an old friend. In addition to the sweet sandwiches, you will get a little cup of homemade potato salad, a piece of scone, or date nut bread, all arranged so pretty on the plate, you won't want to eat it! They also serve all kinds of delicious teas, in the bag, or loose. The have a downstairs full of vintage and new things, and outside you can find various linens, and pieces of furniture for sale. it is located on Sylvania Ave. in Avon,NJ. thanks for coming by, and don't forget to stop by Beverly's to see the other participants. Have a great weekend!
