Yay! It's Rednesday!



Guess what?! It's Rednesday! What's that, you ask? Why, it's when everyone who loves red gathers at It's A Very Cherry World, where Sue is our hostess. Today I'm sharing some red things from the kitchen. Let's take a gander....

I found these bowls at a thrift store, and they were only 45 cents each. I enjoy my Cheerios so much more in these bowls!

These bowls were also purchased at a thrift store. They are Corning Ware, so they're nice and heavy. I'll eat pretty much anything out of these beauties!

These plates are my most, most favorite. They are melamine, and they are from here. And I think I need these, and possibly these. Yes, definitely those! Now head on over to Sue's, and see some more red!

    I have a plate just like your rooster bowl. I got it at Walmart a while back and so wish I would have bought several instead of just one. Love all your cute, cottagey stuff! Yes, that is an old paint by number dog picture I got for $1. I was so excited! I am planning to start a collection of dog prints/pictures/paintings to hang somewhere in my house.

    Love the REDnesday posts. I can't say it, but I love it! I used to have a red, white & blue kitchen until I realized it really clashed with my stained glass, over the kitchen table lamp, that used to be my over the dining room table lamp when we lived in grander digs than a single wide mobile. Gosh...if that's not a run*on sentence, I don't know what is!!! I moved out the R, W & B to a different room, posted about it on the 4th of July. Anyway, cool plates! *elaine*

    Maybe I should shop at my local thrift store more often! It looks like you found some real prizes.

    Thanks doll,

    You did great with your thrift store shopping. We do not have that many here, and when I go, I cannot find things worth buying. Enjoyed your post and your visit by my place.

    Don't you just love that huge country sink. But I'm afraid the dishes would really pile up! But it wouldn't be too bad if they were your cute red ones.
    Love your lady in the pink dress swinging on the garden gate. She needs to come over and model a few of my pickets today. Do you mind of she visits me today? I'll be sure to let folks know where she came from ;-)

    I have those plates on the bottom with the flags! I love them! I found a plate and bowl of the top one with the rooster at a thrift store and Angie (Happy Homebody) has some that she bought at Wal Mart years ago. We're both looking for more of that pattern! Lucky you!
