WeĀ love walking through antique malls and thrift shopsā€¦this activity really getsĀ our creative juices flowing šŸ™‚Ā On a recent visit to one, Jennifer andĀ I spotted a rustic painted candlestick marked for $2 ā€“ and this booth had a 50% off sale!! Then it struck me thatĀ we could create a DIY cake plate.

The next dayĀ we went to Goodwill and purchased a china plate for 50 cents! It is a Noritake, mint condition plate in the pattern of ā€œOntarioā€. WhenĀ we got homeĀ we referenced Replacements in Greensboro, NC and learned that this plate fetches $27.99 per dinner plate. Yay us!

  4. That would be “perfect” which I am obvioudsy not. šŸ™‚

  5. Great idea for thrift finds! I’m always seeing “one plate” that I love, but resist adding it to the collection. No more! I see a whole shelf of different size pedestal stands in my future. Thanks for the tip ladies šŸ™‚ Bwg ~~~
