My Silver Saturday

 

We had a nice time in Florida over the weekend.  The moving wasn’t too terribly bad.  It was just HOT!

I spent all Saturday afternoon thrifting!  I managed to find a few great bargains.  I wasn’t looking for silver, but all three purchases were silver plate and sterling silver.

 

 

I adore this silver plate coffee urn.  The lid is missing, but I plan to use it for flowers.

 

 


How cute are these sterling forks???
I think they are cold meat forks…not sure.
 
 
 

I also got this sterling miniature salt and pepper set.

 

I am linking to the following thrifty parties.  Make sure to check them out!

    Hi Rhonda, LOVE that coffee urn. At first I thought it was a trophy! The flowers are a perfect way to use it. We always have to combine ANYTHING with at least one junk stop! Take care!
    xo,
