Blue Dutch Scene

This cute little container was at a local thrift store.  Since I cannot resist a Dutch scene I was drawn to it.  Even more so when I opened the lid to find it had been used as a little sewing box.  I shall also use it as a little sewing box.  Because I can never find one when I need it.


Blue Tea Pot

I've been looking for a blue tea pot for quite some time now.  I was happy to find one yesterday.  The perfect shade of blue, and marked Lipton Tea on the bottom.  And I don't even like tea.

Baby Bottle Addition

Several pictures later, this is the best I could do getting a close-up of the newest addition to my baby bottle collection.  Now I only look for those that have something cute embossed on the glass.  This one is a baby with a bottle.  It also says "Happy Baby".  I think what I like best are the cute little toes.

Flea Market Finds

At the Allegan County Antiques Flea Market last weekend I found a twin for my 'big doll'.  THGGM found the wooden bench.  The seat lifts up for storage.  I'm thinking maybe for doll clothes?  I found the new doll's outfit and shoes for 50% off at my local thrift store today.

I have a few articles of vintage baby clothes for the dolls, but it's more enjoyable to see them being played with by the grand kids.  And have you ever noticed how many 3 month size outfits are hanging around thrift stores?  Oh, my.  These are going to be some well-dressed dolls!
