Weekend Treasures - Let the season begin!

Cindy found this great Red Wing Pottery pitcher at an estate sale on Saturday.  Although it's not in perfect condition, the price was right since it will be used as a beautiful vase or as a conversation piece.  (This is also the prime reason why it's torture to treasure hunt with a sibling, relative, or good friend.  I'm trying to be a good sport but it's tough to miss something you'd really like to have.  She'd be wise to keep an eye on it or check my bag before I leave her house the next time.)

We've collected Shiny Brite ornaments for years.   This little drum was sitting in a pile of misc. ornaments.  Since I don't have this one, I snatched it up.  I'll probably add the top piece from a broken one I have. 

We have purchased Monarch spice tins and cocoa tins, but the garlic salt and celery salt shakers are new to us.  

Who can resist a Red Wing beater jar?  At first we thought it was a reproduction.  After looking at the bottom and the smooth, rounded inside, we are convinced it's the real thing.
