Beautiful Vintage Floral Thrifted Dishes

A small set that is so simple and yet so sweet- and a couple of extras that I couldn’t resist. Sharing a couple pieces of a sweet vintage floral thrifted dishes today and what my favorite things are.

Dainty Vintage Floral Thrifted Dishes

These are such darling little dainty dishes. I absolutely fell in love with the pale pink edging and roses- and of course the little bits of gilded details.

I found a set of small plates and bowls along with a teacup at the thrifts and they instantly went into my shopping cart. While shopping the same store- I also found 2 sets of the most adorable salt and pepper shakers that looked like they were kindred to the dishes. You know they came home with me too.

I am such a sucker for anything vintage, French, romantic and floral. So vintage floral thrifted dishes- I mean, how could I resist? The dishes were around $12 and the salt and peppers were $2 per set.

A tip when shopping- don’t walk by a set of plates that isn’t complete or that isn’t as full as you might like. Even in small bits, you can mingle those dishes with others that are similar and create a unique and beautiful setting. And more than one time, when shopping a different thrift store, I have found complimentary pieces that work perfectly.

Vintage Platters

I also recently brought home some vintage platters. Which is another thing I am always on the lookout for. Old chunky ironstone with details, simple and sweet or patterned- I love them all. These two are so darling.

One has a lovely little floral garland edging pattern and the other absolutely stopped me in my tracks.

Which I know is odd since it is just a platter but I adore birds and blooms and when I saw this one- I was giddy. I picked it up and told my husband it was my favorite find of the day. The price of these two?

So. Darn. Good. Such fun when you find the most delightful pieces when out shopping! I was actually not there looking for plates or platters- I was in search of old ironstone or white tureens for a styling. I did find a few of those too as you can see in the background. haha. I had some of these on hand already and most of the newly found ones were $6 and under -it was a good vintage bargain kind of shopping day for sure.

Another tip? If it speaks to you, whether that is a whisper or a shout- bring it home. Sometimes the smallest of purchases bring a big amount of joy. I overlook the crazing or chips or imperfections if I really love the pattern or look- they bring me joy even so.

What about you- would you have brought these treasures home with you? Or left them for someone else to enjoy?

All in all a fun vintage romantic dishes haul and you will see these cuties on repeat. Side note- these pitchers of roses are almost all homegrown and just clipped from our garden- I cut them before the rainy weather moved in a few days ago and they are opening up beautifully in the house.
