Enough said . . . I had a dream, too!!! For MLK day, I had a dream to go to Poland and pick out my own Polish Pottery . . . and I got to do it! How fantastic!!! It was kind of a last minute trip, but I certainly made the most of it . . . here's the proof - Watch out . . .
At the first shop - at 6 a.m. trying to be cool and pour myself a cup of whatever might be in that fabulous pot . . . who knows, maybe it's magical . . . it might pour out cash! Or not!
Missy - the world's greatest driver! She had to listen to all of us on the narrow, dark and curvey Polish roads - and even avoid a fox running in the road!!! (Don't worry, no one got a coat out of the deal!)
All my treasures . . . there were bargains galore!!! I just love it - and it's fun to mix and match!!!
One of the main reasons I decided to go were these glasses. I had seen them at a friends house and was told they weren't being made anymore - I was thrilled when we came across them - they are absolutely perfect!!!
The other main reason I wanted to go was to get the dog dishes. I'd been looking for them at every bazaar and they never seemed to have the large ones. Well . . . I got them in Poland, and it's the perfect match for the rest of the kitchen!! Yeah!!!
Check out the plates on the wall outside one shop - or sklep . . . funny name for it, isn't it?!
One of the gals, Sondra, and I thought these letters were very cool and would be neat to have in with our names spelled out . . . however, they didn't have them, and I went away sad. :o( Too bad since COX would have been cheap!!! Oh well . . .
One of the artists working on the handpainted pottery . . . everything is handpainted!!!
A pot in one of the roundabouts. Cool decoration for the city. (Love the church in the background, too!)
The group of girls that I went with - Shelley, Missy, Sondra, Linda, Betina, and me . . . Lydia the great!
(That's for you - Mom, Dad & Chris!)
