Vintage Monday: Riviera and Fiesta

I picked up yet a few more Homer Laughlin items at an estate sale a few weeks ago. I have an obsession for sugar and creamer sets and was happy to find these Riviera ones.

A matching creamer to go with the Fiesta sugar bowl from B's grandma

And we found a slightly chipped lid the complete the soup bowl, 

also from B's grandma's collection

Vintage Monday: Estate sale book finds

B loves to look at books when we go to estate sales 

and here's a fine one he spotted two weekends ago.

 The Evolution of Physics by Albert Einstein

 

In contrast, here's a book I picked up that same weekend...

Hey we've all got to start somewhere right?

Vintage Monday: Estate sale finds

Here's our under $10 haul from last week's estate sale: 

vintage patterned pillow cases and a yellow throw (not pictured), 

along with this kitten embroidery picture frame

An old tobacco box for safe keeping treasures

A bright green glass bottle and some Westclox clocks 

to group together on bookshelves

Vintage Monday: Fiesta time!

Remember my cabinet-full of vintage Fiesta ware?  Well, I've just exponentially added to the collection!  B and I went to a magical estate sale this past weekend and they had such a great assortment of vintage Fiesta  at amazingly low prices that I wanted to do a little dance right then and there. 

I managed to limit (ha!) myself to: an original red comport dish, egg cup, chop plates, and salt shaker, another chop plate in cobalt blue, a green sugar jar with lid, and these amazing stacked refrigerator dishes from the Fiesta Kitchen Kraft line.

I told B that this was most definitely IT for now, but after more research I think I might be keeping an eye out for a relish tray, mixing bowls, water pitcher, and covered casseroles.  But that's IT after that...really...

By the way, I've posted some Pyrex finds over at the Pyrexcollective if you need more Vintage Monday goodness!
