Surprise!!! Was I ever when I polished the spoons that I bought today at Mt. Dora for $1.00 each...you see...the 7 gawdy looking spoons/Fork are Sterling Silver!!! YES...Sterling Silver...my jaw dropped when I looked through the loupe. And here I was going to cut them to make jewelry..hahaha. I love awesome finds like these. The spoons are resting on a box full of crocheted place mats...9 all together for $5.00. The Blue & White plate and doorknobs were also a buck and the cute hankies were also a steal for $2.00 each. I did find some cool jewelry but that's for another time. hahaha
How about you, did you find anything at the flea market today?
Hugs...Sylvia

Wow! I bet your jaw dropped!! Nice buy! I didn't do any yard sale-ing today, although there were lots going on. It was a perfect day for one too.

Ok you topped my finds today that is for sure!~ I was out all morning thrifting and yard salen...I spent a whopping 9.00. I did find some fun stuff though, and look forward to sharing soon. That silverware is just beautiful, what a score! Thanks so much for participating in my first linky party. I look forward to seeing you again. Debbie

Sylvia, what a fabulous trove of treasure you have found! ~ Angela
Man oh man! I don't ever get lucky like that. I haven't been to Mount Dora in a long time. Did you go into town or to Renningers?
Fitzcharmin....we, my friends and I went to Rennigers.
Congrats on the sterling silver! What a wonderful surprise to your great deals! I love the crystal knobs too. Thanks for your comments on my finds also!
You certainly bagged yourself some amazing treasures there.
What a wonderful surprise to find the sterling for that price mixed in with the other gorgeous pieces! Look at those cute little hankies.
Okay, I am officially amazed at the great stuff you've found. I think I need to follow you around next time you go shopping! Love your style.
girl you got a deal!!! Love the knobs too!
Luv the hankies...awesome deal!
Blessings,

You really scored on the sterling silver - that's probably worth $30 apiece! Also, love the doorknobs -they will make a great collection. Is that a flo-blue plate - that's sooooo collectible! Linda
One more thing....about the dining room chair with the flowers on it....I have two of them - identical but discovered in completely different places. Would love to have a dining room set of 8. Linda
