Thrifty Finds



This week's treasures include this bed topper which is 24 by 88 inches. Good thing there was a note attached to it saying what it was because I wasn't sure. In winter I keep a warm quilt folded at the foot of the bed but this will be ideal for summer when no quilt is needed. I love the fabric.  This gem cost me two dollars!



                If the bottom seam had been covered it would have been reversible. Too bad.


                             Little plates were marked down to .50.There were 2 of these.


The cup and saucer are E.B. Foley , the plates are Royal Albert "Primulette". There were 6 of those marked down from five dollars to .50.







                                  My nursery rhyme today is The Three Little Kittens.




Thanks for stopping by today,  Please feel free to leave a comment so I know you came by.

    I am envious of your thrift store finds - the "Primulette" plates are lovely! I have the identical cup & saucer - so very cheery! Adorable vintage illustrations for your featured nursery rhymes!

    Three Little Kittens was one of the first nursery rhymes I learned. I wonder if we were taught it in school? I can remember reciting it and being proud.

    Not only do you show us pretty dishes, but you can match them with table mats!

    The bed topper is beautiful and the dishes are very pretty. What lovely treasures you found. Our thrift store has closed and they are running it like an auction on Facebook. Disappointing for them to do that. Thanks for sharing!
