Friday Finds

I went to a couple of antique and consignment shops with my Mom today. We went in towns we aren't ever in to see what they had to offer. Though they had some antique shops, they weren't very good. I had to look hard to find one good thing from two different places. But, I am very happy with what I did find, so maybe it was all worth it. Both of these items are now up for grabs on my etsy shop! How exciting.

First up is a vintage pink sewing box!

It comes with a tray that fits on the inside at the top. It's all in really good condition and is a great pale pink color. You can use it to store all sorts of things, and it has two rope handles.

Next, I found this gorgoues tin! It has wonderful pale colors, teal, pink, and a light gold. It's a great size and in good condition. The lid comes off and on easily, and I just love the polka dots on the tin. I have a hard time giving this one up, but I'm still selling it here.

Pink Milk Glass Cake Stand

Oh my Mom and I found a gorgeous cake stand the other day. We couldn't go two days without going back to buy it. It's such a soft creamy pale pink, and the top of the stand is so intricate! Not to mention the lovely bubble footed bottom.

I couldn't help but put my lovely MacBeth Evans pastel striped plates on the top to see how it looked. Oh I would love to have a dinner party and have the plates in the middle of the table on the cake stand.

Even though I love it (as I love everything I buy), I am selling this pink cake stand on my CreamyVintageEtsy shop, as I just don't have any room for it. Click the shop name to check it out.

UPDATE: It sold on March 13, 2011

Vintage Zombie/Tumbler Glasses

I found these glasses a couple of days ago and fell in love with them immediately. The colors are creamy, soft, and frosted.

I did my best to research these tumblers, but couldn't come up with much. They are probably hand painted, from the 1950s, when this style was recognized. The image depicts a girl in a crinoline skit with an arch, bird bath and birds flying. These glasses are in great condition too, good to use for parties, and also perfect for display. I love how they would go well with all sorts of themes, Easter, spring, pale colors, girly rooms etc.

I put these up on etsy a few moments ago, if you're interested click here.

Another Blog

Hi everyone!

I have a few blogs, I must admit, but they all have their own wonderful purpose! This one, as the name implies, is for my wonderful adventure in vintage things.

I am mostly into kitchenware currently: plates, all kinds of cups (tumblers, mugs, teacups) bowls, pitchers and all that kind of stuff. I am really into the creamy milk glass pieces. That is why I am called Creamy Vintage, I love the look of pyrex, anchor hocking (fireking), hazel atlas, and macbeth evans. I am in the learning stages of all these wonderful companies and the pieces they made, I hope you enjoy following me through my adventure of finding, learning, and selling creamy vintage.
