I love vintage! When I find something vintage for a very thrifty price it makes me very happy! Today I have a few items to share with you.
I love aluminum trays. This one was a great find at the thrift on 1/2 price day, so yes only 99 cents!
I love the detail!
It is stamped Wilson Specialties Co in Brooklyn NY
This was a fun find for me! I remember having these nut bowls growing up. The nut crackers fit into the large holes with little picks in the smaller holds to get out the nut meat. It pretty great condition (has 3 ball feet I forgot to photograph) and only $1.50
I found this pretty creamer for $3
It looks like the 'needlepoint' pattern from Homer Laughlin's ovenware but I can't be sure. Anyone know?
That's it for this vintage gal! I'm joining Suzanne for Vintage Thingy Thursday
And for some Tiger Cuteness check out my latest post on Viewing My World
Hugs,
Linda

Love the creamer too! I don't know what the pattern is, but wish I did. I remember seeing a piece like this one a while back, but wish I remembered where...story of my life!! Happy VTT!
Great finds! If you love vintage aluminum you might like to stop by my blog today...I set a table with it.
Lovely finds, Linda! I have several aluminum trays that were my mom's. The detail on those is always wonderful! And...yes...I remember those nut bowls! Is it bad when you used to own what is now considered vintage? lol Happy week!...hugs...Debbie
I love those painted nut and snack bowls! What a bargain.
Great finds, Linda! That is a pretty creamer. xo
I haven't seen a nut bowl in years!
Lovin' the daffs on your new platter Linda, looks like you found some fun things:@)
I have never seen a nut bowl but I sure think it's interesting!
I don't know the pattern of the creamer, but it's pretty. sandie
I have not seen that bowl before. My eye went to the lovely crochet piece.
Linda, that has got to be the prettiest aluminum tray I've ever seen. I love hammered aluminum, and this has the best details I've ever seen on a piece. Of course, as always, I can't believe how little you paid for it. Pretty tea cup and what a great nut bowl. laurie
I'd have scooped up that tray, too. It's very pretty but mostly because Wilson is my maiden name. Hugs, Deb=^..^=x4
OMG, Linda. I remember those nut bowls, too! Also loved the doily your creamer is on. Great job! Susan
I love the aluminum trays, they are great sellers in my booth....Good buys!

I love hammered aluminum, too. I love your tray. I posted a couple of years ago about my collection on Vintage Thingy Thursday, you can go here and check it out if you want. http://janetsmart.blogspot.com/search/label/hammered%20aluminum
What wonderful little finds there. The tray reminds me of the ones my Granny Walden made at what they called back then...Club. Back in the day on Livestock Sale Day the women had club.
I have seven that my Granny made. Woohoo!!!
Enjoy your treasures sweetie.
God bless and have a beautiful day! :o)
Hi Linda! What great things you've found. I have a little ice bucket that's hammered stuff! Love it!
Thank you so much for popping in to see me.

Hi Linda...that pitcher with the crossstitch pattern looks like that big bowl I gave you....could they be from the same company??
Oooh that Needlepoint Creamer is really unique. Beautiful piece!
