<\/p>\n

I have not been thrifting much this year as we are cleaning out and preparing to make some additional space for storage. Welcome to the Blog today, Friends, as I share a few new finds with you. In the picture above you can see a silver footed tray. This is a new one and was in really good condition when I found it. Didn’t have to use much polish at all.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This glass compote dish is by a Polish company called Jozefina. It is really quite attractive and has a delicate appearance. Can’t wait to fill it with flowers or fruit and use it in a table setting.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Another piece by the same maker is the above oil lamp. It needs a wick but is in really nice condition. Because there are multiple legs on these pieces they are sometimes called jellyfish crystal. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Looking down into the top of the compote also gives you a good look at the decorative nature of the tray.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here’s a close-up of the carved handle.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Next up is this group of Mikasa Balloon goblets for red wine. Each pattern on the six glasses is different. I was really happy to find these especially since the cost was 85 cents per glass. I was doing my happy dance all the way up to the cashier. These were found at one of my favorite local Thrift Stores.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When purchasing crystal always look for a Maker’s Mark. They are usually on the foot of the glass. You can see the Mikasa mark in this photo. Not all crystal from the same mfg. will have a mark as some companies have just introduced that recently. These glasses were really filthy when I found them but washed up perfectly. No cracks, chips or other blemishes were found.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Another new find was these Lenox ornaments. There are six of them and they are from the Twelve Days of Christmas Series. I have a collection of these and put them on the Family tree every year. It was really nice to be able to add these six to the other decorations. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I used the silver tray above for a small vignette with these great black and white houses and some curious birds.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Hope you have some great finds in your thrifting adventures this week.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
