I took the Mr. Doggie for a walk today and popped into one of my favourite thrift/antique stores and found a Franciscan Starburst pitcher to go with my ever growing Starburst collection!!
My heart almost stopped beating when I saw it from across the room … I scampered my way over to it, gathered it lovingly into my arms, pressed it close to my heart and whispered into it’s non-existent ear “You are coming home with me, my precious…”
I have NEVER in all my years of collecting seen any Franciscan Starburst stuff in a thrift/antique store. My collection has been cobbled together from e-bay and a few pieces from woman in town who was selling her collection on the internet.
I am far from completing my collection but I’m slowly getting there …
Today is a good day!! 🙂
