Goodbye To Summer Hello Fall

It's hard to believe that we're entering Fall and soon another year will come to an end.  I remember as a child waiting for Thanksgiving, Halloween, Remembrance Day and Christmas.  Now this time has arrived and I feel like I just put away the good china from last Christmas dinner.  Don't get me wrong I love this time of the year it's just a year doesn't seem very long the older I get.

I have a new look in the Hoosier I went with a fall theme.  It just felt like it needed a change.

The above collage are a few pieces from my Pyrex collection in Fall colors.

This piece of California pottery I found at a local secondhand store.  I always find these serving dishes great when we have company over.

I found this sister for my 1st mannequin at a garage sale about a month ago.
Both brooches are being worn by the mannequins in the above collage.  Both brooches are unsigned.

A Look At My Mid Modern Buys

The following items are mid century modern items I've added to our home.

I won this room divider in a silent auction at the MCC it was me and another bidder who really wanted it I was lucky and got to bring it home.  Of course Like so many times my tap out amount is never the real amount I only went over by $20.00 this time.  All but the orange, yellow and green vase are made in West Germany.  The white light shade did not come with it I found it on Saturday at a garage sale.

A friend of mine found this Poole vase which was made in England at a garage sale and thought I would like it she was right.

All these pieces of pottery in the above picture were made in California in the United States.

My boyfriend found these Dansk fondue pots at Value Village but there were no stands, the price was good and we couldn't bring ourselves to leave them behind.

These snapdragons add some color under my kitchen window.

Mostly Orange, Green And Blue

The following items are all secondhand store finds from the last two weeks.  I picked up two fairly large boxes of finds this Saturday alone.  These finds will be in my next few blogs.

1950's Atomic Age Eames Glass Cookie Jar.

This 1960 mid century modern California Pottery serving dish is in a Psychedelic design.  These pieces have 872 Calif. U.S.A. stamped on the bottom.  The colors are a red/orange, yellow and avocado green.

This piece caught my eye I believe it is California pottery.  I thought it was stamped on the bottom with U.S.A. Cal. Orici 334 but I found nothing when I tried to research it.  The colors are Avocado with a green and blue hue.

This dish is a piece of Canadian Blue Mountain Pottery.  Located in Collingwood, Ontario founded in 1947 and closed in 2004.

I've added this orange glass flower frog to my collection.

These notecards and envelopes I bought because the pictures worked for a window display.
