I was checking out the website, One King's Lane, and found these gorgeous blue and white plates for sale: a set of 6, for $145. I am kind of quietly collecting this style for my back patio, but the price tag is a little steep. I have been paying around $2 or $4 per plate.
So I was happy, but not too surprised when I found the same plates at our local antique store for a fraction of the price.

Look how many they have! |
See? Upside down, yes, but the same. It pays to shop around, people!

These lamps have nothing to do with the plates, above, in the sense that sadly, I have not found their doppelgangers hanging around any thrift or antique stores. Unfortunately. But they are gorgeous and deserve to be showcased. And they're such a deal at only $1,500!
So, remember, find your inspiration piece, but if it is too pricey, shop around! Don't forget places like Marshall's, T.J. Maxx, thrift stores, and antique stores; you'd be amazed at what you can find.
Happy hunting!
