Keeping Thanksgiving
Unlike every store in America, I am trying to hold off on the Christmas decor and enjoy one holiday at a time. It’s Thanksgiving, not Christmas. I just want to savor the moments and spend this time with my family before all the Christmas craziness begins. We have much to be thankful for.

Turkey & Transferware
Holiday flea markets are the best time to search for vintage turkey transferware platters and large serving platters in general. This is a sampling of what I found today at the Grayslake Flea Market. I would have bought the blue turkey platter in a heartbeat but, unfortunately, it had some major damage that wouldn’t have held up with my dishwashers here.

Turkey Display
I didn’t get a chance to go out to Kane County this weekend and only had time for a quick trip to Jackson Square Mall in LaGrange. Sitting in booth #111 downstairs was a very clever idea for the use of a vintage suitcase. I love the collection of vintage turkey planters along with the turkey salt and peppers. Doesn’t this look fabulous? I may just have to do something different with my turkeys this year.

Leaving Thanksgiving….
It’s time to put the Turkeys away and head over to the One of a Kind Show in downtown Chicago. Before I go, I wanted to show you what you can do with a vintage postcard collection. You make things! I photocopied, enlarged and laminated my Thanksgiving postcards. They are fun to have on the kitchen table throughout the holiday season and clean up is a quick wipe down. I love to make and give these placemat sets as gifts to special friends. So, now you know what to ask for this Christmas……….a laminator!
