Thrift Store Report

[moon_custafer]

Took some books to the Goodwill this morning - Fridays everything is half off, so I ended up getting two dresses, a pair of brown suede slingback pumps, a bell-jar-like thingy, and a china cup and saucer for a total of eleven dollars. I looked up the cup when I got home - it's Royal Albert, in the pattern "Honeysuckle" and the cup shape "Avon," and was manufactured some time between 1927 and 1935. It's not wildly valuable, but at three dollars, I got a bargain.

My well-meaning but wildly off-the-mark grandmother, is gradually supplying us with an entire set of Royal Albert in Country Roses. These will eventually be mime, she says.
I always say that I'll have the best place-settings in the asylum when the dolls and I have tea parties.

Sounds like an episode of Lovejoy.

I just googled that pattern and I can see how it caught your eye. That is some kinda pretty.
Pumps sound nice, too.
