I didn’t think I ‘d have time to blog but I found this Framecraft ceramic beige bowl with gilded metal lid (on sale) today! The work is beautiful (not signed unless it is under the lid but I am not going to take it apart to look). And, the dish is in excellent condition. We’ve been out in Scottsdale, Arizona for the holiday & popped into an antique mall today. I really was amazed to find this gem for $5. We are taking a break after a van tour of the area & before dinner.
When I return home, I will share my experiences at 3 needlepoint stores – honestly, when I picked this location for vacation, I had no idea there were 3 stores so close to us! But, I found my color scheme for Bargello Techniques & will be using Vineyard Merino. I also found a couple of small painted canvases & one cross stitch chart. And, we went into the Heard Museum where we saw some lovely Native American pieces that I’ll share too.

That is so pretty, Melita! I remember those from the ’80’s I think. She must have done a good job in finishing it because mine have had to be refinished over the years. At five dollars, you got a real bargain as the porcelain boxes sold for much more! Glad to know that we will be hearing more about your adventures
