Vintage Thingie Thursday

Good evening y'all, I know I'm a little late posting this but have been rushing around like a chicken with it's head cut off,....you Country Girls know what I mean by that...lol...Chuck came and picked Morgan up about 11:30. I was suppose to go to Richland this evening and take Marissa to Tumbling class, but Ronnie had to come down to his Dr and had scheduled tomorrow off from work so I get the rest of the week off to rest. Yea...
Last week while Marissa and I were out junkin' looking for a sign to go in the bath, I found a little gem, I was so excited when I saw it, the pot and lid are in perfect condition and oh my, it even had the tea fuser in it. How neat is this and for only $18.00. Now, anyone who collects Hall's knows that is a steal.....I have another one just like it, but I can assure you it cost alot more than $18.00 and since the 2 Grands are arguing over who gets what when Granny dies, I just bought it now they each have one a peice or I might give it to my Sis for her Birthday, she collects Halls also. Isn't it a little beauty...

Last week when I went to the Dr I stopped at my favorite Vendors Mall and found this little item that caused my heart to skip a beat....I was trembling when I turned it over to see the price can you believe it was marked $5.00 just because the lid was gone...Ebay here I come...I have every tea pot, water pitcher, milk pitcher and coffee pot that went with my set except the Aladdin pot...and here it was with it's naked little self...no lids what to do,???? well I bought it...

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED MY VINTAGE THINGIES! SEE YOU NEXT WEEK! FOR MORE WONDERFUL VINTAGE THINGIES VISIT COLORADO LADY

  9. What sweet finds. I could live with the
    lovely Aladdin jewel tea pot for $5.00.
    So there's no top.... to good of a deal
    to pass up. :)

  10. Tell those grands to stop arguing over your Hall's when you pass, because you're taking it with you!!! St Peter wouldn't mind!LOL...

    Such pretty teapots, and you are so right, sooner or later the top to the Aladdin pot will show up on Ebay...

  11. I sure hope the top comes along, I am sure someone has just the top. I had a friend who collected this same pattern.

  13. Hope you find a top. Not many people would keep a top without the bottom.

  14. So glad you found the teapot, I'm sure some day you will find the lid. I found a piece of that pattern last week at a yard sale and I wasn't sure what it was. It looked like it was missing a lid and it was discolored a little around the lip. Came home and got on the internet and found out it was one of a set of three stacking bowls that share one lid. Maybe some day I will find the lid, it only cost me 50 cents.
