Good golly gosh I'm just about jumping out of my skin with excitement to show you my treasures.
It's Saturday here in Aussie Land and this morning Mum and I went to the dump shop to see what we might find. Well, they say one mans trash is another mans treasure, this is soooooooooooooo true because I feel like I have found the sweetest treasure and yet people seen these lovelies as rubbish. I have always been shocked by what people throw away but never mind that, back to what is important and that is showing you my TREASURE!!!
Now I do know that some of you may not see it in the same light as I do and that's ok we all have different tastes :) I just want to share what has tickled me happy today :)
My Treasure!!!!!! yippppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Mum fell in love with the cross-stitch which is done so beautifully I'm sure many hours went into this beautiful piece. The glass in the frame is a non reflective glass and Mum said that it's quite a bit dearer than normal glass...so that's a bonus :)
This little plate caught my eye, it's quite worn but still pretty. Stamped on the back of it is a crown, SAJI, made in Japan, fine china and ICP-10936.
I thought this mirror was cute so I decided it would be coming home to live at my place :)
But this is what made me do back flips (please know that I didn't actually do back flips)...hehe now that would be funny..hmmm more like impossible...anyway...moving right along....I know it's not pink...golly I think I may have fainted if it was pink and even though it's not pink I still think the green is beautiful..it's a really pretty green. In the set is one large plate, one bread & butter plate, four saucers and one beautiful tea cup. It's not in the best condition there's chips and cracks but I love it all the same. Stamped on the back is MYOTT {under myott is like a coat of arms}, Staffordshire England, Florentine and then numbers stamped in gold 4597. I'll have to google all this to see what it all means, my sweet Mum says that it's a good brand. Either way I'm not bothered because I think it's gorgeous. I have been blessed with these treasures.
I hope you all liked my little show & tell, I've enjoyed sharing my finds with you all and I'm having such a blast taking the pics of everything as well. Don't you just LOVE photography!?
Oh! I almost forgot to tell you that all of this cost $10 which I thought was just super :)
I'd love to hear(read) your thoughts on my treasures or just stop and say hi :)
Have a fabulous weekend ladies!!

Hi Melly,
Great finds! I loved everything. Isn't it amazing what people will get rid of? I love to go thrift shopping. Some of my greatest treasures are found that way.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful finds. It makes me itch to go shopping!
I am so glad that you stopped by the other day - it is nice to meet you! I look forward to reading more of your lovely blog.
Have a great day,
Kymber
I can't believe you found all those wonderful things in a dump! Love those gorgeous green dishes.
