My favorite find is this vintage French enamel house number. I started not to get it, but knew if I didn't I would regret it. It was marked $35 and by paying cash I got a 10% discount.
Six vintage Myott ironstone plates for $18.
They have the most wonderful crazing.
Unmarked good size ironstone pitcher.
My second favorite find is this old chippy French blue enamel colander. Only $20.
Mr. Savvy noticed the colander hanging from the pot rack and said that it matches my vintage bread box that I just got a few weeks ago. He is so observant, that man of mine.
No, I take that back he still hasn't noticed the repainted mantel. I guess he notices the little things.
Thanks so much for your kind comments on my home tour post.
Have a super duper week!

What wonderful finds Kim. Love that blue colander.
Love your new finds! Lucky you to find that wonderful house #! I thought the same thing about the blue colander matching your blue bread box. That is such a pretty shade of blue.
Great finds. Love the pitcher, just like my moms. You found some really lovely treasures. Hugs, Marty
Kim, what lovely finds. I just found out that I was a winner of a Ramsign enamel address number. Mi was so excited since the drawing was on my birthday and I was the winner.
Like your ironstone too, don!t have much lucknhere finding it. However, just found some on etsy.
Stay cool!
Those are great finds Kim! I haven't had any luck with finding ironstone.
The blue colander is really pretty, and has a refreshing summer feel.
What beautiful treasures! I wouldn't have been able to resist the address plaque either! Hoping you get some relief from the brutal heat soon! Xo
All wonderful. Especially the pitcher. Pitchers call to me.
LOVE YOUR NEW FRENCHY THINGS!!!
Ohhhhh such pretties. We inherited my MIL's Myott when we married twenty years ago. I have most of the pieces left, but some didn't make our many military moves. I mostly have the cups and saucers and salad plates.
I love the pattern. I love that colander, its a beauty.
FYI, painting my breakfast hutch with my new ASCP. EEK! We'll see how it goes. :) xxoo, Barb
beautiful finds and that man is a keeper!!!!
Hi Kim...
Well my friend, I can't think of a better way to spend time on a hot day...love to go antiquing!!! You found some really sweet treasure finds. Of course, I love the ironstone but that sweet little enamel colander is awesome!
Just wanted to stop by to say hello! I sooo enjoyed your visit to my mountain meander post. Thanks for coming by, dear lady!
Warmest summery wishes,
Chari
Love the blue colander! Great finds!
ooo, love all your finds. love the pitcher!
Pretty finds! Especially that blue colander :)
Lovely finds, Kim. I have a stack of the Myott salad plates too.
Darn, I'm going to have to go to the shed and get the 12 place setting of Myott that we used when we were newlyweds. Love the comment about the repainted mantle. One day my hubby asked where the large upholstered rocking chair in our bedroom came from.......uhhhhh....over a decade ago he picked it up for me at the store. Men really are in their own world!
Love the finds, especially that enamel house number. And, it looks like you found an ironstone pitcher (not broken!)!
Great finds! It has been HOT here too! I love the white pitcher and the blue colander. My daughter and I now place bets on whether or not hubby will notice things...
You will have so much finding places to display your new finds! Love the french blue!
Kim,
I can't think of a better way to spend a hot summer day.Great finds too!
(((Hugs)))

You are a seasoned treasure hunter! I LOVE that colander!
With all the heat finding indoor activities, like shopping,is a must!
Wow, you found some amazing finds! I love your colander and the french house number sign is definitely a keeper... I'm glad you snatched it up!
Love the house number, Kim. Anxious to see what you do with it.

Kim,
Your bread box and colander match a vintage enamel ware bowl I have. I want your things. LOL Great score:)
So jealous of that colander...it's wonderful. Good for you to post a home tour. I'm working on one but it's slow going. Hope you had a good weekend and stayed cool. We got a break in the weather today thank heavens. It was 85 instead of 105!
Fun finds, Kim. Love the Frenchy blue colander. ;-)
I love that colander but I think I have some plates like that in my stash I smash for mosaics. I think I better look.
Liss
What fun treasures you found. That pitcher is just lovely.
Wonderful finds, Kim...my favorite is the fabulous colander! The heat wave has finally broke here!
Okay- I like ALL your finds- the numbers and the ironstone pitcher but I LOVE...LOVE....LOVE that colander! What a find that is- I have never seen a blue one- xo Diana
Hi Kim, what great finds! I really love the blue colander. I have a piece of furniture I'd like to paint in that color. : ) Hope you'll share these at the Frugal Treasures Tuesday party starting this evening at 7pm.
Congrats, I've nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award. You can find the details on my blog post.

Beautiful finds! I LOVE the ironstone pitcher, and the colander is simply gorgeous - what a colour!

Great finds, Kim, but that blue colander is the bomb! No wonder Mr. Savvy noticed it!
I need to take Mr. Savvy shopping with me! My hubs eyes would be glazing over as I scored the aisles. Great finds - love the enamel house number!
Kelly
You found the perfect cure for excessive heat. Shopping. And, you were so successful. Love your new goodies.♥
Oh, my crackers! I want that French enamel sign! I went to France last year (compliments of hubby giving me a birthday gift) and I fell in LOVE with their blue enamel street signage. I can't wait to see where you put it....and if you can't find room for it...you know who to call!
Well we're in the triple digits this week. We don't want you southerners having all the fun! I've been inside painting my heart out today. It's all good.
Love that blue colander!
Well at least something good comes out of these horrible temps...you found great things staying out of the heat!!!......I so love blue and white enamelware...I am sure they look wonderful in your house!! and Mr. Savvy thinks so too!!
Kim, That is an amazing deal on that colander. I also love the white pitcher. I saw one last weekend too and didn't get it. Now, I wish I had. Thanks for ALL you do to make our Wednesdays wonderful.
