Featured Had a mad shopping spree at a church sale :o

I was very upset yesterday, to cheer me up my hub took me to a table sale at a church and well I just went a bit MAD.

I had £6 when I went in,and three bags of kerap and no monies when I came out but I felt better
I spent £3 on these, just liked them and as I say,I was a Bit Mad. Just curious about them, don't think they are anything special but I always need vases. (Because others get broken not because I get a huge amount of flowers).

I never pay £3 for anything as I am mega tight but I just cannot explain it :O I was in that table sale like a rat up a drainpipe.
Anyway here they are. We are covered in that white stuff outside so really am sorry for the pics.

This one is approx 11 inches

 

This one is approx eight inches and has no markings on the base.

 

Has something odd happening in the rim..looks as if someone's painted a felt pen on it a bit

 

First one is modern Chinese decorators piece, but would have cost a fair bit more than 3 quid new. Second is older, maybe 1930s. I suspect the felt ink is covering a ding.

 

Thank you so much Mrs.B x x
<3 <3 <3

 

(The blue felty pen stuff is all over the place,don't think it's covering a ding though could be covering paint loss?) x x

 

Could be! Give it a soak.

 

Will do! Thank you my Mrs.B...got a carrier bag full of costume jewellery too but am too sad to investigate it today...something to look forward to tomorrow x x

 

Oh, nice. Feel better soon, honey. xx

Thank you so much for your kind words <3 <3 and always your help xx

 

They're both very pretty. I think you did very well. I love church sales. They start up again in my area in May and run through October. I try to arrive 30 minutes early and usually stand in line with lots of other shoppers. Then, the race is on to find the true bargains.

 

I had a fab time, even more so as I had marks of Tragedy all over my face

 

Let's hope you can wash away those marks with the scented soap of love & the sweet water of faith hope & charity ........

That'll have you feeling better in no time !

( or , another table sale !!! ..)

 

And get out that carrier bag; I need a little vicarious thrill action about now.

 

I washed those marks away with the blood of my enemies! I AM BOUDICCA!

 

got it out...there was a weird ring in it. Says 15 ct but has a weird patch at the front, have started a thread but hoping to take better pics today but that white kerap is still around x x x

 

...here I am,looking for the tears of everyone's firstborn to wash my tragic face

 

I'll just move out of your way now....if you don't mind !

 

hehe you should be OK if you don't try to take my country ( and defile my daughters )
I utterly love Bou. I just...love her. my favourite person in history without any doubt...she showed them Roman boys!

 

I have no desire for your lands......I'd have to see your daughters first ....though....before I'd make any moves one way or the other..!
