Detour, There's an Antique Shop Ahead

 

 

Hello Dear Friends,

There is a lot of road

construction going on in

our town this summer.

So, today while in town

I had to take a short detour.

Do you remember the old song,

"Detour There's A Muddy Road Ahead"

well in my case

there was a little antique shop

on this route that I'd been hearing about,

so of course I had to visit. 

 

 

I love bowls and this one caught my eye.

This is the design on the outside of the bowl.

 

 

And this is the inside pattern. 

 

 

This is the marking on the bottom.

Look at all the little cracks . . .

why do I love that? 

 

 

I also purchased this little pitcher

I haven't measured it, but I think

it probably holds a pint.

It's small but much larger than a creamer.

 

Look at the pattern on the handle,

cool right? 

 

 

And again the mark on the bottom.

Look close there are more

little cracks . . .

Love those sweet little signs

of aging.

Here it is filled with flowers

from my garden :)

 

Oh, the lady that owns the shop

was so sweet, we talked for 

a while and quickly became friends.

Making a new friend was even 

sweeter than finding these

lovely treasures.

 

 

Wishing each of you a lovely week,

Try smiling and saying "Hi"

to a stranger . . .

you might make a new friend :)

God bless you,

Connie :)
