I am sharing my Windsor Ware Harvest Fruit dishes by Johnson Brothers. I started out years ago with some plates and
have added to my collection when I have seen them at a
decent price.
Speaking of prices, I recently found a real bargain at
a local resale shop. Last year Victoria Magazine featured
the most gorgeous cake dome and stand in the Christmas
issue. I just looked and the replacement business that
everyone talks about had one for over $400.00 but I got
mine for $40.00. I was so excited.
As you can see to the right, I do have a dome which
had no stand that I purchased last year so now I have
2 of those. I also found some more of the
crystal etched glasses which I mix and match on my
table. This one is called "June Night" and is beloved.
I broke at least 2 of these over the year so having
extras is a good plan - especially when I see
them at a good price. They are from the 1930's-40's.
And I say "oops" to that vacuum
cleaner wand to the right!
I have been enjoying Instagram so much
and would encourage everyone to look
at it for "whatever" interests you.
The punch bowl above was purchased at the
Salvation Army resale store in Old Colorado City
many years ago.
I make the same comments every year: I wish we celebrated Thanksgiving earlier so we had more time before Christmas.
