I was delighted to find this at the yard sale for 50 cents. I thank the Lord for wholesome things like this. There is really an abundance of good....if we determine in our hearts to be discerning.
This oh so quaint and charming tea-basket? I could not pass up for $2.00. It has the little pockets on the sides for cream and sugar. I'm using it to hold my tatting threads and shuttles. I do so love tatting!
The Aero tatting shuttle is my very favorite. See it there? the gray plastic shuttle nestled among the thread...waiting for me to come and tat. Tatting is a very old art form of making lace with tiny knots.

Your shopping also produced some great finds. I love the little tea caddy. I've never seen one before. Would you put cookies in the middle? I also like to see someone tatting. I have some beautiful work my great aunt did. Such detail!
Fun, what great finds. :-)
My great grandma also did tatting.
xx oo
You find the nicest things.
Love your tea caddy! And all the wonderful sewing items gathered there are so great. I have my grandmother's metal tatting shuttle! I don't know how to use it, but I would love to learn to do tatting. I also have knitting needles, crochet hooks, scissors and other sewing delights from my great-grandmother, grandmother and a great aunt. Oh, and thimbles!
