China
My Mum has finally come to the conclusion that not only does my Dad need to be in care she is needing it also. In doing so she is passing onto my siblings & myself bits & pieces. Last time i was there i brought home the china she told me i could have.
I've always loved this carnival glass bowl. I was only expecting this bowl but i was given these 2 as well.
Dad bought a series of lion/tiger plates & we were to choose 1. No guessing which one i chose. :)
Thursday Joy ventured up to Ipswich for lunch with Pami & i. We visited 2 stores that sell old china. In the first store i spotted several things i wanted but sadly they were a bit beyond my price range but i did come home with this gorgeous teaset.
At the next shop i found a lovely crinoline lady bowl & another of the orange coloured bowls shown above. Tempted to buy it but settled on the crinoline.
Still might go get the other bowl though. :)

She is not amused.

ReplyDeleteLove the depression glass...
ReplyDeleteCarnival glass is so pretty. I love your tea set and the Crinoline lady bowl. I thought you were going to hav an 'attack cat' on your hands there for a minute.
ReplyDeleteThat is such an important and hard decision for your parents. I hope that their transition is smooth and wish them luck.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing, hon, that your mum is aware of her own needs - it can really lead to battles when parents don't like to admit they need help. Your china is all fabulous, but I love that crinoline lady best!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful China pieces!!! Bella's face hilarious!! Lol! Too cute!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful treasures! Oh and a beautiful Bella too! :)
