BLUE WILLOW MINIATURES



I have been using Blue Willow dinnerware since I first started collecting.  Back in the 1980's, you could buy plates and bowls at a garage sale for $2 a piece.  Cheaper than any set I could find at the store, so I bought dozens of pieces.  The children were always dropping and breaking them, so it became a habit to keep an eye out for individual pieces.  Come to find out many years later, I had collected dishes from the 1800's, 1940's, 1960's and 1970's...they never stop making this pattern!
Today I ran across a tiny little pitcher to add to my ongoing collection.  I took a picture of it next to a 5" saucer to show you how tiny it is.  Sweet!
