Salt & Pepper…

Finally!!! Since I was at my first flea market several months ago, I have been on a hunt to find a fabulous matching milk glass salt & pepper set.  You see, at that first flea market – I didn’t realize how quickly you had to snatch & purchase something if you saw something you wanted.  I saw a set similar to these, but waiting too long to make up my mind & someone reached across me & grabbed them, paid for them & moved on….while I sat there in awe of what just happened.

So when I came across these at an antique store recently, I didn’t hesitate!  & they are mine…all mine!

and I am happy!

LOVE those Tracie!... oooh, I would love to take you antique~treasure hunting with me... I learned a long time ago, you have to be really, how should I put this, PUSHY and grab what you want or someone else will get it for sure!... I have always been nice and rather shy, and when I saw I was losing out on so many things, I became the fastest shopper there is!... now I want some shakers just like yours!... xoxo Julie Marie

Glad you got them this time! Isn't it amazing how fast things can happen when someone really wants it! I have a similiar story from a sale I was at. Was looking at a box of different wall decor and while I was looking through it a lady came up and said, "I am taking all of these" and swooped the box right out from under me. I even had my box sitting on top of that box. I kept the two in my hands though. HA!!

The salt and pepper shakers are really cute, sort of retro looking! I have had similar things happen to me at flea markets. Once I went to get my husband a few feet away to look at a table I wanted and someone just picked it up and paid for it in that split second. We have been looking everywhere for something like it. Bummer. But hurray for you!!!

XO,
