Thursday provided us with another gorgeous day in northeast Wisconsin; blue skies, a slight breeze, and temps in the 70s. There is a fabulous resale shop that I've been following on Facebook lately and I was dying to see it. Julie's Upscale Resale Shop (Sister Bay, WI) did NOT disappoint! There was so much to see--a great variety of things! Julie says that drop offs come in everyday, all day, and I managed to acquire some great things! Here they are!
This fabulous picnic basket had just been dropped off earlier in the day...
There was even a fork included--don't think I'll be using that!
The center tray is removable...I thought it was a great piece...and VERY reasonable, too!
This precious little metal basket with a sturdy wire bottom will hopefully assist in cutting down some clutter in the bathroom...
There are dozens of these lovely vintage handkerchiefs at Julie's...I grabbed two! As great as these finds were, this was the greatest of all:
A fabulous Staffordshire Ironstone pitcher and bowl, made in England...very heavy, large, and very beautiful! I've been watching this online for several weeks and was so excited to see it still available; I simply had to have it! If you look to the left, you will see the ears of Assistant #2 peeking up, as well, I believe, the 'blue hour' from the back door!
It was a great afternoon; if you're ever in Door County, by all means visit Julie! They seem to have a great time there!
Have a great weekend, everyone!

I am hopping over from Debbie's. The bowl and pitcher drew me in! What a beauty. All you treasures are great. I especially love the picnic basket. Who would get rid of a picnic basket with summer approaching? Your good luck, though.

Hi Nancy! Oh, that is a darling picnic basket! Love the ironstone pitcher and bowl too. Do you think those were the ones used on washstands years ago? I love them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for popping in to see me and I just laughed out loud with you mentioned your little assistant's ears poking up! :) How cute.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Thanks so much for visiting and commenting, Shelia! I always look forward to your posts!

Love all of your finds but that pitcher reminds me of a large white set like that at my grandmother's house ....that is the picture that you posted on the link party and it drew me in like a magnet : )
ReplyDeleteDebra, I was shocked to see that the set was still available! There are a few imperfections, but for the price, I got a huge bargain! Thank you for visiting!

ReplyDeleteMichelle: they have tons of hankies! They are all beautiful. I thought I exhibited great restraint by purchasing only two!

Hi Nancy
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you are out enjoying yourself and not still toiling away in your garden. Love the treasures you found. My favorites have to be the hankies! (Black ears against a blue door -hmmm - maybe an art piece in that :>D)
Thanks, Donna! Please check your g-mail.
