{thrifty kitchen treasures}

Oh, How I Just LOVE a Bargain!!!

I'm repeating myself, I know!

But I never tire of saying it, or finding those one of kind inexpensive treasures that add a little pleasure to my life.

The white ironstone pitcher above, characterized with sweet, aged grazing, was a recent yard sale find for a couple of dollars.

It sits on my kitchen table, filled with fragrant gardenias from my yard that smell heavenly!

Also in my breakfast nook area,
the three plates below have looked kind of lonely for quite awhile.
But, I haven't been able to find just the right plates to add to the collection.

However, at a local thrift store last week, I stumbled across these two Bordallo/Portugal plates, for $1.99 each.

....just what I have been looking for!
Below, the old pitcher sits on the kitchen table.

Yep, love a bargain! It's those simple, thrifty treasures that make my heart sing! :)
