VINTAGE TREASURES

 I have two sweet treasures that I want to share today. Now please stop by Suzanne at ColoradoLady. She is the sweet host of this fun Thursday post.

My cute little squirrel dish sat at my sister's Goodwill store for three weeks. I looked it over and wanted it and never bought it. It is made in Taiwan and he is cute as can be sitting on top of a nut! It is such a sweet piece, I am glad no one wanted him because now he belongs to me!

The little Josef girl with the baby shoe is sweet too. She is only marked Josef so I don't know why no one else wanted to share with this cute little miss. I am so glad I found them and glad to show them to you today.

Come join this fun post. Now go visit all the other posts too.

    My Mom had that squirrel dish. And we used to have candy nuts in it at all times. Great find.

    I like your squirrel as it is not alive and it's cute - don't like real squirrels who like to come in peoples attics.

    Anne,

    I can tell you that my mom made those little squirrels that sit on the nut some 20+ years ago. When I saw it they were instant flash backs to childhood for me.

    Thanks for the memories!

    Wanted to wish you a great weekend!

    Love and Hugs ~ Kat
