Anxious for Spring

I just love my vintage Lefton Miss Dainty Girl tea set:

It reminds me of spring, and believe me when I say, we desperately need signs of spring around here!
I am anxious for sunshine, flowers and cheery colors.
And candy buttons, too!

    It is actually feeling like spring here in Myrtle Beach! Usually by this time of the year it generally feels like early summer!!

    I have not had a chance to get out thrifting for weeks and am beyond withdrawal pangs. Your pretty colors and smiling faces give me hope of spring. And the memories of button candy!

    Enjoyed your post today. I have one of your "girls" but she's a salt shaker. Mine is just marked JAPAN so it was nice to read that she's made by Lefton. I covet your set! LOL! Visiting from Thrifty Thursday and hoping you'll stop by Cottage and Creek and say 'hi'.
