Last week was pretty fruitful at the local A.R.C. Thrift Store that I haunt a couple times a week. I found lots of old Homer Laughlin creamy white dishes at 25¢ apiece. I have a few other pieces, not in the photo, that I have slowly been collecting. Monday while in the city I stopped at Goodwill and was about to leave empty handed when I spotted this cute swan soup tureen; it was $1.98. I scooped it up fast as I saw another lady headed toward it.
Thanks for dropping by and commenting.

I love those white dishes, and for $.25 each I would be in heaven! I also like your rooster dishes; they look great on that plaid tablecloth. I think that is the prettiest tablescape I have seen yet.

LOVE white dishes lately. You scored! I happened across 4 vintage straffordshire dishes with the underlyling crackling...*swoon* Loving that tureen too! Fun!
peace.
What a great find! White dishes are my favorite...you can use them in so many ways.
I once had that tureen...a wedding present. In my youthful innocence, I sold it at a garage sale. Now, I am kicking myself...

The dishes are great, and I just LOVE the soup tureen..
Price please!
What great finds! Lucky you.
What great finds - I can almost picture you running for the tureen :) I've been there done that.
You got some great things, Marigene! Love the whites! I'm laughing how you nabbed the swan before the other lady got to it :) Now that's a good shopper!
I have actually nudged people out of the way when I saw them heading for something at GW that I wanted....I have gotten some good stuff being pushy....You have to be fast!
I love your dishes, and the tureen is darling. What a great find! Glad you beat the other woman to it. It helps to have sharp pointy elbows when you are shopping at a thrift shop!
