Vintage Monday

I found this vintage Florida tray at a thrift shop at the beach for $3.00.  My aunt and uncle bought a house in Florida last winter and I thought that my aunt might like it for her new house.  She seemed pleased when I gave it to her, so I think it was $3.00 well spent. 



I haven't been to Florida since 1992.  Now that my aunt and uncle will be there all winter, I'd love to go back.  I'm not sure exactly where their house is, but I do know that it is in the Tampa area and not too far from a beach. 

I'm sharing at Rhoda's weekly Thrifty Treasures party at her fabulous blog, Southern Hospitality.

    Neat find! I bet your aunt will find a great spot to display it. I'm heading to FL in August for the MOPS Convention...not looking forward to the humidity, but I am looking forward to staying at the Gaylord. :)
