Anniversary Tea Cup

I went to an auction Wednesday for the first time in months. Auctions are so much fun; digging for treasures, the thrill of winning the bid, getting bargains! This anniversary tea cup was one of my wins. I also got some glassware, linens and some interesting things in a junk lot (they called it five boxes of "knick knacks").

Be sure to head over to Colorado Lady's blog to check out the other entries for this weeks Vintage thingies Thursday.

  13. I remember going to farm auctions with my Grandpa and watching all the old men bidding on "surprise boxes" They often didn't know what was in them, so their goal was to either get a really good deal, or make someone else end up paying a lot of money for a box of junk. In either case they went away happy.

    It looks like you made out ok.
