Fun Find

I had the opportunity to stop in at the thrift store the other day and found this to bring home with me.


Not sure if it's considered a creamer or a gravy boat.

I'm going with gravy boat since I love me some gravy!

I have a little collection which comes in very handy around the house.

Other than it's traditional use . . .

Sometimes they help organized napkins.


In the spring I fill them with wheat grass.


When not pressed into some duty, they sit around accomplishing their most important task - -
looking pretty and making me smile!


Hope you all are having a lovely day.

  5. I don't know who likes white dishes more...you or me? I am very jealous of your new gravy boat. I especially like the idea of planting wheatgrass in it!

  8. That definately looks like a gravy container to me, too. I love how the wheat grass looks in them, so fresh and green. I love finding nontraditional ways to hold things in containers you wouldn't usually use. Very cute!

  9. Oh, I like that wheatgrass idea. Just shouts Spring!!! I call those things gravy boats. I have a thing for sugar holders. I keep finding just the sugar holder (without the creamer) at thrift stores.

  11. Gravy bowls are so pretty, I love the idea of the grass, but I have no place to put them. I really like the idea of putting napkins in them, though, you are one smart cookie.
    Have a lovely day, Cindy
