simplypainted: Simply Basic

Monday, April 6, 2015

Last Friday I had a chance to go to a pasture farmhouse sale here in Georgia. It wasn't a terribly large show, but the promoters did a great job of getting the customers there. It was a pasture farmhouse show, in a beautiful farm setting south of Atlanta. Newnan to be exact. I understand the show is only about 2 years old so i'm sure it will only get bigger and better. Anyhow, back to my finds. I found a basic white ceramic soup tureen. No markings, probably not old but it has a great look. Simple white, no chips and great for my collection. On Saturday I found myself at a diy parking lot sale, outside of an antique mall. There again not many vendors, but I did find 3 simple little brown transfer ware plates. Nothing fancy, nothing valuable, simple little plates. I also found some wicker place mats for my farm table. They definitely are plain and simple , but you know me, I have to doll up everything. So I put a coat of semi transparent grey stain on them. Now we're talking. They turned out great. I love them. I didn't find alot , but what I did find I love. Basic and simple.....ENJOY!!
