I wrote about leaving this piece behind in early February and Hunting Tigress kindly pointed out that it was a valuable mod set and even listed the value of the pieces for me! I loved the look of it regardless so I knew if it was still where I left I'd buy it next time I saw it.
Midwinter Ltd (England), Moon Pattern, Stonehenge Line, 1973, Rare Collectible Dining Set is on Etsy. I love using it for tea, soups, food photography..it's just a gorgeous set.
The groovy 1970s typography on this pair won me over. I thought it would be fun to sell it as a set.
The napkin holder would be fun to host notepads or scraps of paper for writing quick ideas. I have it listed over on Etsy
This beautiful Royal Haegar vase was a donation from BF's mom, she found it at a yard sale. I love the piece, lovely shape and texture!
It's chilling with me at the house until it sells on Etsy. Inspiring me with it's atomic era beauty.
I believe this kitschy collection of plates slipped under the radar. I love the welcoming messages they evoke, they make a kitchen or any room in your home feel cozy.
Until they sell on Etsy they're one of the first things you'll see when you enter my apartment. I especially love that first one depicting all the creature comforts: a smoke, a black coffee, a cozy bed and an earthy den with a big fireplace. That's what keeps bringing me back to vintage housewares, especially small ones for the kitchen and home, that sense of homeyness one piece can instantly provide.
So tell me, what did you score at the thrifts? If you like any piece you see, e-mail me, it's all for sale!

Gorgeous Midwinter dishes there!
ReplyDeleteIndeed! I love using them in the meantime :)
DeleteMy sister has a few of the sun plates from that same company. Very cool!
ReplyDeleteThe sun ones are super beautiful, too. Love the set.
DeleteI am glad you were able to pick up the Midwinter dishes. I just love their Stonehenge line!
ReplyDeleteMe too. Thanks again for the kind tips! They were super helpful.
DeleteI have stacks of vintage plates too. They are normally very inexpensive at the thrifts and too pretty to leave behind. What I am going to do with themf I have no idea. Eat off of them, maybe?
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week!

ReplyDeleteGreat score on the midwinter set! Also, love the shape of the vase.
ReplyDeleteThe vase is gorgeous, I don't mind it hanging around until it sells.
DeleteGorgeous dishes!!! I love the vase, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
DeleteI must say that the dinner set would be hard to resist. They look solid, big and chunky perfect for comfort food and hot drinks.
ReplyDeleteThat they are, you hit the nail on the head. I love using them for soups already.
DeleteHow funny, I had four of those Moon pattern plates when I was 18 (I am 43) that I bought from a thrift store to eat off of. I have no idea where they are now, think they got redonated at some point in the last 20 years. I guess I had excellent taste.
ReplyDeleteThat you did ;) I'm almost scared to use mine daily with my horrible clumsiness, but they're a solid set that can take some damage.
DeleteThat vase is wild & I wish I could find those dishes. Would love to resell them, lol.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, it's funny we're eager to own things, to resell :D
DeleteLove the vase! It's great when everyone joins in on the thrifting fun.
ReplyDeleteYep, when his mom finds stuff in my style she kindly passes it my way.

ReplyDeleteThey're gorgeous in that pattern.

ReplyDeleteWe had that same napkin holder growing up! My Mom kept the bills in it on our kitchen desk!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good alternative use for it!
DeleteYou really know what to look for, I love it all!! I'd love it if you'd jump over and link up at my "Go Get Your Garage Sale On" Linky Party, and share some of your great finds! http://www.brightgreendoor.com/2013/05/go-get-your-garage-sale-on-with.html
