She found this Sheffield set for $5.00.
There was another serving piece, but the handle was broken. But I think she got an exceptional deal for the pieces that she's able to use. Now to clean it up............I found these two pieces at the thrift store on Saturday.
I know the piece on the right is usually used for sugar packets, but I will use it for tea bags. And the piece on the right baffled the lady checking me out as she could not figure out what it was used for.
This is the third spooner that I've found.I don't normally collect this type of sandwich glass, but on the half price day, well hey, it looked good to me :-)
Please visit Colorado Lady's blog for the Vintage Thingies Thursday. (Please check my sidebar for her link)Happy Thriftin'!
Your daughter did well on her adventure! That little spoon rest is cute - I don't think I have ever seen one.

Wonderful stuff! I love the silverware; and I now realize something I didn't know before -- I need a spooner!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful silver set!
ReplyDeleteA spooner! I don't think I've ever seen or heard of a spooner! And $5 sounds like a really great deal on that pretty silver set! Looks great now, but it'll look awesome when it's been polished!
ReplyDeleteHappy VTT!

ReplyDeleteValerie
I too want a spooner....how cool is that?? That was a great price on the silver, it should clean up lovely.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and a wonderful VTT!
I think it's great that your daughter has the garage sale fever!! Very nice set she found.
ReplyDeleteI also love your pink teapot and the pretty C&S.
Deb :)
You both got some great deals.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds. A spooner? So useful, and I've never seen one before! Something else to look for!
ReplyDeleteVery cool pieces, my Mom had a piece similar to the sugar packets holder and it help playing cards.....the spooners are so neat!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful thrifty finds you both made!
ReplyDeleteWhat Fun! Nice to hear your daughter has caught the bug.
ReplyDeleteLove the spooner. I haven't found any of those and I have been looking! LOL One will probably just pop up when I least expect it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog!
Have a wonderful day!
Great finds on the silver set. I'm glad I do not have to clean it. LOL. I love the spooner but I didn't know that's what it was. I have two of those given to me by my mom YEARS ago. I have put silverware in them though. Forks, when I had a buffet meal. They are still packed from moving 2 1/2 years ago. It is time to unpack them. My spooners are more like short vases with wide openings. I'll have to share them one day. One has handles and is green depression glass. I love it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Hugs, Jeanne
Wonderful silver coffee set! and I like the glass pieces too...great deals Mom and Daughter!
