Warm Glow Candle Outlet Store and Webb's Antique Mall

A couple of weeks ago we took a day trip to Centerville to the Warm Glow Candle Outlet Store.


They have really nice candles and lots of other stuff such as wreaths, seasonal items, dishes, and every candle fragrance you can imagine. I bought some faux pumpkins (fall is my favorite season), some candles and a candle holder.

After that we drove to Webb's Antique Mall.


I found a bear that I used to have as a kid! I had to buy it! I wonder if it's mine from when I was little? I've never seen one of these in all of my years of antiquing. Isn't he cute?

Besides collecting Fiestaware, I also collect little porcelain dogs made in Japan from the 50s and 60s. I found this nice set for a bargain price of $4.95. I usually don't find them with the little dogs still attached to the larger dog. I love the thrill of the hunt! I'm definitely a junker:)

Heart of Ohio Antique Center

We went to the Heart of Ohio Antique Center in Springfield, Ohio on Saturday. This is a huge antique mall. They have over 600 dealers. This was our second visit. We love looking at all of the retro stuff. I loved seeing all of the pieces of Fiestaware. I bought a Homer Laughlin Virginia Rose creamer at a very good price. I also bought a couple of vintage bracelets pictured below.


My bling!

Fiestaware

I collect Fiestaware and other Homer Laughlin china. Here is a picture of one of my hutches filled with my passion. When Mike and I first set up house, I told him I had a few boxes of my collection. Little did he realize that I had over 400 pieces. He says that I took over the house and I did. Mike doesn't have any closet space either. You guys know how it is.
