Estate Sale Finds

Went to a few estate sales again this weekend. This is what I found...
Brass peacock findings. I'm not sure what they are, they may have been attached to furniture, but each one is two kissing peacocks. So cute.
I will try to work them into some furniture re-do.

Little Miss Muffet baby fork and spoon. This will be added to my collection of nursery rhyme silver. They are very worn but still adorable.

A water pitcher that has a forest scene with a little girl and boy. Perfect for holding flowers.

A girls head and a great 1960's cookbook - The French-Kosher Cookbook. I love the cover and it has cute sketches throughout that feature a girl, a dog and Paris.

Linked up to Nifty Thrifty Tuesday, hosted by Coastal Charm.

  7. I would think that finding anything with peacocks would be so hard to do, but you continue to amaze me with your finds. It is the last photo that I really love, pink, girly and Paris. It doesn't get any better than that. Thanks for sharing.
