Thrift Store Score: Tea Set!

I've been pretty dissapointed with the selection in the thrift shops here on the Big I- they are the worst combination: expensive & stuffed with plastic junk, pilled sweaters and sadly dogeared romance novels. But, I'm a diehard thrifter and I still pop in from time to time. And this time, I was rewarded. Remember that teaparty I've been fantasizing about?

Looks like it just got a lot fancier! (I thought y'all would get a kick out of the packing tape job the volunteers at the Salvation Army did on this baby. Can you believe there were seven cups and saucers, a creamer AND a teapot in there? Impressive fellas. ) One of my favorite things about thrifting is rescuing something from the oblivion of a landfill. It's wonderful to know that this little set will have a second life in my home and will be enjoyed by my girlfriends and I on my sunny little porch instead of sitting on some musty shelf. I'm so looking forward to all the daintiness.

Have you had any great scores lately?
