What caught my eye...


I went to the Dutch Valley Antique Mall on Friday with my friend Sherrie. I just bought one Pyrex bowl, but oh the lovely things I saw. My office has pink in it and I collect tea pots and glassware that goes in my office book shelf. Needless to say I love all this pretty pink.


I am not an amber person, but this booth had a lot of it. 


Two glasses I want but I want them in the big size, these were the medium. 


Loved this little chair. The harp in the back was just too precious.


I have been looking for these in the carnival glass that is blue and green, but can't find them anywhere. 


I fell in love with this piece. But the bottom and back side had some damage. 


Isn't this a neat stove. 


This little booth had a ton of neat stuff.


One of those "why didn't I buy that" moments. These salt and pepper shakers are perfect for my kitchen and they were just $3.50 each. Kicking myself for not getting them. 


I want one of these little pitchers but just can't force myself to spend $15 for a pitcher I will not use. 


Fell in love with this beautiful teacup but it was rather pricey. 


This particular booth was color schemed on each shelf. 


This ruby was really pretty.


And I fell in love with the light blue. 


I really liked the green as well. 


Liked the looks of these. 


Some cute little vintage items. Her prices were bad.


I have been wanting a set of these but have no idea where I would put them. The price was reasonable but I just need to decide if I really want them. 


Some more pretty items. 


Mom used to have these little bowls. 


Lots of green in this booth. 


I fell in love with these dishes but I don't think I have room for one more plate or cup.


I am addicted to looking at old typewriters. One of these days I am going to break down and buy one. 


More pink caught my eye. 


Loved all the neat little animals. 


Look at the canister set below. It was in great condition. 


Remember this retro cups that look like they have colored burlap in them?


If this had not been so pricey I would have bought it for my sister. She collect Pyrex and Butterfly Gold is her favorite pattern. 


We had a typewriter similar to this when we were younger. 


I just thought these were a real thing of beauty. 


And of course you know I had to take a picture of Pyrex. There were a lot of booths that carried it. Some were at good prices, some not so good. 


I should have bought this plate. It was from the year I was born. 


This was a cute little coffee pot. 


Not sure who made these but they were pretty, if somewhat pricey. 


All in all it was a great day and I plan to go back again soon.

I love browsing through antique malls even if I don't buy anything. I get really good ideas as to what to look for at yard sales. Maddie and I are going to our favorite mall's annual sale that starts today. I hope to find some treasures!

I believe the shakers in your last photo are reproductions. If so, I can't believe the price! Awful.

Has it stopped raining yet?
