I'm still getting back in the swing of things after our trip to New York city... and so without further ado...here is a sampling of my local thrift scores from this past Friday and Saturday...
Yes, it's Christmas in September!
A Lefton Christmas tree-shaped plate - this will go with my other Lefton
Holly Berry pieces which go on display during the Winter version of the
Four Seasons bathroom...I know you can't wait for that!
Everybody needs an Elf bootie complete with holly & holly berries...
A very sweet Chintz style jam or mustard jar, no markings but there is
an unreadable foil sticker on the bottom...so I'm thinking
Japanese...
note the break in the pattern and the gold is worn but no
chips at all!
(There are two Noma single candlesticks in the background still in the packages...not too exciting but they have orange bulbs in them...yes, I collect them...)
An unmarked McCoy mint green Wishing Well Wall Pocket...I'm thinking
maybe cotton swabs in the Fall version of the Four Seasons
bathroom...that one will be done within the week I'm hoping...
a 2010 Chik-fil-A "Eat Mor Chikin" ornament...everybody needs one of these...
And finally...my treasure from the Green Flea Market on the Upper West Side of Manhattan...We went to the Sunday Market located at
Columbus Avenue between W. 76 & 77 Streets. To get there we took the bus and walked. (and walked and walked)! 8-)
Alms Collecting Buddha
(Begging Buddha)
(Begging Buddha)
Signifies compassion and caring for all beings...
Arms bent at the elbows, holding an alms bowl at chest level
I was so excited to find this Buddha!
And I was able to put him in my carry-on bag with no difficulty at all!

Very Fitting!
