French Country Sale Bloomfield,Ont.





  

Today there was a sale in Bloomfield. It is about 3 hours east of us on the Bay of Quinte.
So off we went in our daily driver(rain in the forcast) at 8:am .
This French Country Sale actually started yesterday.
There was so much to see, I can't imagine what we missed.
There were many chairs (that I could buy) but didn't.
I picked up the cutest birdhouse( I collect them) and put it down for just a second and turned to look at this vase when it was gone. The vase is from England (Crown Devon.) Not a mark on it $8.00
, and this blue and white plate from Japan, 50's for $2.00. They came home with me. As well a quilted sham for my queensize pillow.  Sorry no photo it's already in the wash.


So off we go to another town Carrying Place to the next Antiques mall.There was lots of eye candy and I purchased this cute pudding bowl.
TG Green Co. Ltd. England for $5.00.
We carried on home at this point and ran into some hard rain.
Good thing we did not take our truck(49 ford p/u)
until next time,

    I think TG Green makes Cornishware.... I think the pudding bowl is so cute! I love the shape, and you can't go wrong with white. I also lie the vase. It is lovely!

    That looks like a fun sale...pretty long drive from my house, sadly! Don't you sometimes just wish you could fly from wonderful sale to wonderful sale....just for one year! Wow! That would take some serious money, even if you didn't buy anything! It's fun to dream!

    Looks like you found some great places. I always wonder what I missed by not getting there first thing in the morning. Your vase is gorgeous. I have a thing for white vases.

    I am visiting you from MM, Between naps on The Porch...Love the vase and how lucky that you have so many great places to find treasures. We live on a small Island and there are very few to pick from. What a great day and beautiful things to see.

    I'm like Lori "I want that bike" I wonder how much they wanted for it! How I'd like to find a sale like that in Pa. I've never been to one, I think it was worth the 3 hour drive!
    Love the vase and plate!
    I'm visiting from Show and Tell and I'm your newest follower hope you will stop by when you have a minute!

    Hopped over from No Minimalist here. Looks like such a fun place to be. I absolutely love the hunt when it comes to finding treasures. Looks like you had good success. Too bad about the bird house. I love bird houses also.
