This past Monday I went to my Mom’s house and we went over to the Goodwill so I could drop off a few things. We always look around inside, and I found a few ‘treasures’. Why would anyone give this charming plate away?
Perfect for a birthday celebration!
Then I saw this little hobnail salt holder stuck on a shelf for $1:
Mom located a couple of thumbprint cobalt blue drinking glasses to go with some of the other glasses I have.
I have to make another run to my mom’s as she woke up Thursday with a terrible sore throat. I had to go to the dentist, so she had to wait until today. I feel bad, but her 100 foot long stone driveway wasn’t plowed and now the snow has a crusty ice topping. My brother’s friend will be doing that this morning. Please say a few prayers that she doesn’t have strep throat. I’m also thinking tonsillitis.

I’m wondering how crowded this event would be as I’d love to go! When people hear ‘free’ they go bonkers!

Hey Dianne! I hope your mom’s throat turns out to be okay!!!
What a cool plate, love the blue! Prayers to your mom, and you all as you weather this winter stuff:)
Love your plate. I have one similar in red. The tip I read was to use a china marker and write the dates or occasion on the back of the plate each time you use it. It was a great idea. I wish I had done that! 😉
I love the GW too! Just this week I got a pretty little find from Bavaria, Germany. Thanks for sharing… 😉 ~CC
Great treasures, the color is so pretty!
I love that plate. I have never seen a salt holder like that. It’s really pretty. I keep meaning to check out our Goodwill store.
Oh, that plate is so cute! I know, its hard to believe what some people throw away! 🙂 Good finds…love the little blue hobnail salt holder too.
Those are neat finds! I always wonder why people give away things that I like!

I think the plate is a wonderful find! I’ve seen similar in magazines and always think I should order one. The salt shaker holder-thingy is beautiful. I love the color! So pretty. Thanks for showing them to us.
You are always welcome in The Shadow of the Cross. Feel free to visit anytime.
