I love elephants.
I have a few elephant items around the house.
Not a full blown tchotchke collection, just a print, paperweight,
{and a huge poster from the kids department, I couldn't help it!}
I grabbed this 12" square wrapped canvas painting off the wall at Goodwill
It's signed and numbered but I haven't been able to find anything on it yet.
My Mom found these salt & pepper shakers.
I get my love of blue and white from her,
AND
she has
Courier & Ives-adar
They're missing the stoppers, I wonder where I can buy some...
I love these little dishes, a set of 8, perfect condition
Lastly we went to two estate sales.
We probably should have stayed home as there was a terrible storm going on and they were about 30 miles away.
I personally think estate sales when raining STINK.
They are crowded to begin with but when it rains everyone is crammed inside with wet jackets, umbrellas, etc. and parking is just a nightmare.
But as a die hard thrifter I end up thinking, why not, lets just pop in real quick.
Two estate sales, two hours (plus getting lost), later.
I bought ONE thing.
a vintage scale.
It was worth it.

GREAT finds!!! I especially LOVE that scale. Totally worth it!!
Oh yes, definitely worth it, because that scale is so fun! Funny what you said about your mom. I feel the same way, but am only just now admitting it!

I adore elephants too and love love the canvas painting, hope you find out who painted it.
As for the salt and pepper corks you should try Ben Franklins. I saw some mini sized corks last week.
Just found your blog via? I can't recall...but I immediately became addicted and will now flea with you on a regular basis. :-)
