Pretty in Green

I found these dishes at my favorite local thrift. I found the dinner plates one week and the salad/soup bowls the following week.  My dad purchased the dinner plates for me. That is odd for me because he is always complaining that I have too many dishes. He dislikes when I crowd the table. The following week after we purchased the dinner plates, I went back as usual. I was in line to pay for something else.  I spotted them on the counter but didn't know what they were and I thought they belonged to the customer standing by the counter.  As the line moved on the bowls stayed on the counter. When I got the bowls and saw that they matched my plates,I snatched them immediately.  I got six bowls for $4.99 and 10 dinner plates for $9.99. They are not the usual Fiesta I normally use but they are made by Homer Laughlin. They are stamped Nautilus. There is another stamp in gold that says Lifetime China Co. semi-vitreous, Aliance, Ohio and Jade Rose. The gold trim is still intact on both the bowls and plates. I still need to work on researching them.

The candle stick holders are Lenox and I found them at a thrift store also.  The small green tea light holders were found at Goodwill for $.50.

The green glasses were a gift from a friend who fuels my addition to dishes.  The ice tea goblets were a wedding gift.

We had Italian Nachos and salad for dinner.

Thanks for stopping by. I linking up with Susan at Between Naps on the Porch.

 Have a great weekend!!
