Thrift Share Monday

I listed a lot of items this week, mostly on eBay but didn't get much in terms of sales yesterday when most of my listings were ending. Sigh. Maybe due to the Olympics being on? I think I may move the listings to my new Etsy store. With the manic listing I didn't make it to any sales or thrift stores, so I thought I would share some of my "Jenn's Jewels" that I have not shared before and are still available or now decorate my home.

This is probably my favorite of all time, had it listed on Bonanza but I just can't part with it. It now graces my kitchen counter on a beautiful iron display easel. It is from 1929 and of course it is from England...Copeland Spode. The colors are amazing and while I have seen similar patterns from Copeland Spode they are usually in monotone color of red or brown. I love the pie crust edge and the extra raised dark red ridge you see that circles the scene.

I love this little jar from Lefton, probably from some time in the 60's. It is sort of a mustardy green color featuring Pears 'N Apples(the name of the pattern) in golden hues of yellow and red. I have this listed on Bonanza but I am moving it over to Etsy.

Classic and elegant Noritake Guilford pattern cups and saucers. The pattern was produced from 1952 until 1974. I love the simple lines and the glint of gold against the crisp white which would work for both traditional and modern tastes. Probably moving these from Bonanza to Etsy.

Hope everyone has a great week and I can't wait to see everyone's Thrift Shares this week. Linking to Apron Thrift Girl and Her Library Adventures.

    Hey Jenn,
    Thanks for the follow and I'm following you back...you are making me really want to get an Etsy shop going...I mainly sell books on Amazon. I have another 100 or so to list and a bunch more that I can create listings for...plus some hundreds that I need to take and add images for ... plus a LOT of stuff to sell... So, it's interesting to hear your thoughts on the various venues to sell in. And I like your stuff, will try to get over to your Etsy shop to check it out later today.
