Today after the sun came out and melted and dried up the snow, I felt I needed a bit of consignment shopping .. I just felt there was something out there with my name on it.... and I wasnt disappointed... I love exploring all the vendors, gleaning the offerings for just the right treasures....
.
I have been looking for a blue and white planter for some time... I dont know the maker of this but for 9 dollars I was ecstatic!
My favrite shop is Buy the Season!
This is the back room.... barely heated but always worth a stroll through!!!! I bought my favorite cloche in there...

I found this beautiful Wood and Son's English pottery plate for $3.50.
As you may glimpse over on the wall I love to collect various transferware patterns and mix and match on table scapes.... I have a red, blue, and black collection. I have very few serving pieces in blue and I loved this Mason Ironstone Blue and White by Crabtree Evelyn of London for $6.25.
On one of the clearance tables I found this fabulous Villeroy Boch plate... Made in Luxenbourg... I thought it would be gorgoeus as a wall plate when I am serving my black and whites!!!
with and without a flash... I love castles and this one is magnificent!
I paid $8 but I couldnt find a comparable price online....
Last, but certainly not least, I found this wonderful springy cup and saucer....
Staffordshire Bouquet by Johnson Brothers... of England... I thought Id enjoy my springtime morning coffee and tea in this spritely cup, especially at only $5.00 for the pair.
Altogether I spent $31.50 but I daresay I saved an equal amount if Id purchased these treasures in any other way!
