  • Vintage Rose China

    Vintage Rose China

    We got home from vacation late last night and are trying to get back in the swing of things ~ I don't know why it seems so hard to get back to normal life ~

    Before we left I went on a shopping trip for a couple of days to stock up on some treasures and found alot of them ~ It was soooo much fun !!
    I will be listing them over the next couple of days in between catching up on orders ~
    Here is a sneak peek of what is coming ~

    How much China Can fit in a Carry-on ?

    I got a wild hair to go visit my friend in Kansas this week for a couple of days and do some antique shopping ~ they have wonderful shops there that I love to explore ~ I always feel like I am at Mayberry because the towns are like stepping back in time ~

    I just took a carry on suitcase with me and packed really light so I could carry my treasures home ~
    We hit the ground running from the time I got off the plane until the next evening when I flew home ~

    I found some gorgeous china and really could have left it for my next driving visit or ship it home but I wanted to see if I could carry it with me ~ I was so excited that I could put all of my fun treasures in my suitcase ~ It was sooo heavy, you should have seen me trying to lift it in the overhead ~

    I was thrilled with the pretty pink rose plates and also loved the blues too !

    On the way to the airport we stopped at a huge antique mall but only had a short amount of time to explore it ~ I will be headed there first next visit which has to be real soon !

    This is a picture of one of the booths ~ there was so much to look in this mall and each booth was jammed packed ~ it was kind of overwhelming ~

    It was a fun but quick trip so I have to go back soon ~

    I will be listing the new treasures on my website in the Vintage Finds category this weekend ~
