Tag Sale Goodies

 This past weekend our church held their annual Spring Tag Sale and my mom volunteered both days for it. My mom and I have similar taste so we always know what each other would like. She came across these two silver pieces and knew I would love them, so she snatched them right up and bought them for me. She knew they wouldn't last, the pretty silver pitcher was only marked $5 and the cute silver candy dish was only $3. She even bought me the pretty tulips to put in it. Love You, Mom xoxo







 
                            What a  nice surprise, Thank You Mom!!

    "Just because" gifts are the best because they are motivated by love and not obligation. You are a lucky gal!

    I love them! I had gotten rid of my silver. Didn't want to polish them. Now it's much easier with new products out there.
    I may have to start looking for some of those bargains! lol

    They look beautiful!

    How sweet of your Mom. These make such a pretty vignette. I bet you got those mossy-covered rocks at the $Store, didn't you? I have the same ones on a little silver pedestal dish in my garden window. They are perfect. Love the silver & green. Your previous post about reflections was wonderful. You had some lovely photos.
