A Thrift not to be missed!

Hello my friends, how the devil are you all?

I am feeling particularly pleased with myself today...

I have been scouring eBay for a nice usable milk/cream jug and I don't know hwy but I was looking for something in particular and it struck me that I was looking for a jug that my mum had... so when i popped around I asked her about the jug I remembered and she pointed it out to me on her shelf ... and then she said those wonderful words
"you can take it on if you like!"
wow.... so I quickly picked up the blue and white 1 Quart jug, it doesn't have any mark on it but it is very old, and I love it!

In Mum's cupboard I caught a glimpse of a blue and white jug... so I carefully unburied it and found a larger one these are both Staffordshire Chef ware...then I spotted the two cream coloured jugs... these are Alfred Meakin and Mum kindly told me to take them on too!
As I dug deeper into the recesses of this slightly forgotten corner cupboard I spotted something pink.... and low and behold the lovely pink Gladstone tea set below!

I was on a roll now so I mooched my way into the front room and took a looked in the sideboard cupboard... I found the loveliest saucer and prayed I would come across the teacup to match...
it was there right at the back and I brought them home too!
This teacup and saucer is Crown Staffordshire and its called Maytime... so I think I might start using this one to drink my morning tea from...

Now I brought these two sets on, but I am not sure whether I will keep them....
these are 2 tea cups and saucers by Royal Park

These are by Royal Vale

It really was the best kind of thrifting....
Mum you are the best
and as soon as I have the room to display it I will gladly bring on Nanny and Grandpa's blue and white terrines and casseroles...
I am hoping Mr P will build me a cabinet in the alcove in the lounge and with the help of my brother put some glazed doors on it (to cut down on the dusting...! lol)

Well I hope you are all having a fab Monday...

Take care
Alex
