I am in love with pretty bird motifs lately.
Years a go I bought my first blue baroque bird motifs salad plate at Home Goods. It was the only plate on the shelve. And I just could not resist the plate sitting on the shelve by itself. Although I collected vintage blue band china even until now; this salad plate is new. We all know that merchandise at Home Goods always incomplete. That's why I love shopping around at Home Goods because you never know what you are going to find.
A few days a go I went to Marshalls and saw the same exact blue baroque bird motifs set again. I could not believe my eyes and after almost 2 years later? Only this time I saw 2 sets of creamer and sugar bowl and one that I thought a small vase. {I could not figure out what it was. It was almost look like a creamer but larger}. So immediately I grabbed the sugar bowl, creamer and the little vase. But then I was not sure about the vase so I put it back on the shelve. I bought only the sugar bowl and creamer. Went home. That night I could not stop thinking about the little vase. So the next day I went back to get the little vase and it was gone. I saw only a set of creamer and sugar bowl which I already bought a day before. I looked and looked but could not find the little vase. Don't we all have experienced this; should have bought it first time saw it. Little dissapointed, I walked around to see what else is new over there. Hello! I saw a set of tea cup and saucer with similar motif on the other side of the section. It was so pretty and the set tied with a pretty ribbon. Felt very happy I said to myself you are mine now. I immediately grabbed them and paid. It was my lucky day.
These two vintage birdie post cards were bought in an antique store in Nyack. Nyack is a small historic town by the Hudson River in New York. Last Sunday we drove up there to have brunch and walked around the little town of Nyack. I thought those two birds are cute and lovely.
My gut instinct is telling me that one of these days I will find other pieces of similar set, may be at Home Goods or Marshalls again, or may be at TJ Maxx. The hunt for this pretty blue baroque bird set will be continued and for sure that I am on the look out for them.
Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed my pretty blue baroque bird tea set.
Have a great week end Everyone!
