I ran in Goodwill the other day on my lunch break and happened on a wonderful find! An ironstone sugar & creamer! They were in beautiful shape and get this...$1.51 a piece! Can you believe that? Our GW has ugly dinnerware marked for WAY more than that! I was SHOCKED at the price. Of course I snatched them up as fast as I could.
These were perfect additions to all the other white pieces I have been picking up here and there for my new open shelves in my kitchen. I am in LOVE with the shelves that my FIL and husband built for me!
I just put some odd and ends on the shelves as they have not been fully painted but I couldn't wait to try them out!
We have slowly been remodeling our kitchen and so far I am LOVING the transformation. As I've mentioned before, we live in a small 70's brick ranch and have an itty bitty kitchen. Recently we tore out the cabinets that separated the kitchen from the dining area so we installed these shelves to help make up for some of the missing cabinet space.
I would do it again in a heartbeat!~Victoria~

Great buy, I would have swooped them up too ! I love my ironstone and I am amazed at all the different pieces...aren't the prices just wacky sometimes at the thrift store ??

Hi Victoria! Love the shelves and love all the white goodies you put on them. The ironstone you found at Goodwill is very nice. Have a great week!
The perfect match!!!
I am SO loving the look of open shelving I've been seeing so much of lately. Such a clean look and so refreshing. If I hadn't just remodeled my kitchen, I would be doing that too. I love it!

Oh, and what a great deal on that Ironstone!!!!
Oh, I love your open shelving, it looks fantastic & lucky you finding the ironstone pieces at such a great price. I hardly ever find anything at the thriftstores. You did good, love your white collection too.
The shelves are beautiful and the creamer and sugar make a great addition. That is a bargain for GW. I saw 1 canning jar priced for 1.99 last week, and it wasn't old. Just a plain old canning jar. Jackie
Great deal on the ironstone! "My" little thrift store has some once in a while too. It's so classic and looks perfect in your kitchen!
What a find! You really scored with those. Our GW often has overpriced dishware as well, I would have been giddy with your great deal. Your shelves are beautiful.

Love the shelves .... they look wonderful with your goodies! I'm decorating some myself (hopefully sooner than later) and I hope they turn out as good as yours!!
Love those white pieces! I've been hunting my thrifts for white pieces but no luck yet. Your shelves look great!
Great shelves and what a steal on the ironstone. Don't you just love when you find amazing deals?

Lovelovelove the white shelves and the way your treasures are arranged on them.
Great deal
Victoria,
Your shelves look crisp and clean, but still warm and homey. What a great bargain finding the sugar and creamer at GW. I love thrift store shopping.

I am JEALOUS!! what a find. Ok, is it just me or is it odd that your gw prices thing with odd cents. like 1.51 Ours does not do that. Maybe I am not as cool as you. I am betting on that! :)
The shelves are beautiful! And the sugar and creamer set have found a perfect home.
By the way...I now have tomato plants in my flower garden. =)
Love your fabulous ironstone! It all looks lovely together.
Blessings,

You know I adore your shelves. They turned out so beautifully and all of your pieces just add to them perfectly. Amazing deal on the ironstone.
I love the ironstone, and the price is unheard of!
I received the scrapbook from your giveaway yesterday....Thank you!
I also have an award for you at my blog :)
How beautiful! Riddle me jealous! Your shelves look great!
Those are some great pieces. You've got a nice display going.
Wonderful finds--and what an amazing price! I don't understand the pricing format at stores like Goodwill and Value Village.
Come by and visit if you have a chance--I'm giving away giftcards to TJ Maxx and Marshalls.

OMG! Those are beautiful! What a find! I picked up 4 little ironstone plates at Goodwill this week. I think because they're plain white they mark them less than if they had designs?
Manuela
What wonderful ironstone you found! You just never know what bargain you might find.
