Not much today.....but I did find a couple things......cuz you KNOW I NEED them!



This Aladin teapot for $1.00.  It does have a small repair....but oh yes, it was coming home with me...


And the Autumn Leaf pattern mixing bowl.....2.50.

I took some items this week to a consignment shop and I was so excited that I found these hidden in a closet shelf...


My Uncle Arnold had given them to me years ago....73 is our wedding year and of course, I am from Michigan!!.....I am doing something  with them....you will see soon.  I KNEW they were someplace.

I have a blue Aladin teapot like that in blue. oh-wait- I think I sent that to my brother just before he passed away. It belonged to my Mom.

Can't wait to see what you do with your license plates- xo Diana

What a find, finding that tea pot, it is adorable. You are so lucky finding that bowl, it is perfect for fall. I never seem to be able to come across bowls.

Can't wait to see what you do with your license plates, that's so cool you have one the year of your marriage. I have two of my dad's (Pennsylvania) one is from 1942 and the other from 1950. I wouldn't take anything for them.

Love that Aladdin lamp teapot, great color! I have an Aladdin lamp teapot that was my mother's and it is in the Jewel Tea Autumn Leaf pattern! I also have a coffee pot in the same pattern, that's the only two pieces I have of her collection. Other family members have the others, but these two are my favorite.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the license plates!

Wow! Both items are wonderful! I think we all are waiting to see what you do with those plates. They are great colors too!
I remember owning ALL of that Jewel T pattern...and I gave it all way somewhere along the line many years ago. I cannot even remember why I would do such a thing! NO WONDER I have piles of stuff I keep saying I'm getting rid of.

Wow! You really got a deal on the Autumn Leaf bowl! Love the doily you have them sitting on!

Any chance a genie came out of the teapot? I've never seen one that shape before except in brass.

What wonderful treasures! Is your teapot made by Hall? (marked on the bottom?)
