Orange carafe and little cup $1

This is something really cute that I picked up from St Vinnies (yes, I know. Again with the St Vinnies!).

When I saw this little set I was immediately in love with it.
And each piece only 50 cents, which means the total price here was $1.

One freaking dollar!

I couldn't believe it!
I would have paid 10 times that amount!

The cup is so adorable, about 10cm tall. The kind of glass I imagine a grandma would drink a little beer from. SO CUTE! And the little carafe is charming too.


The etched orange look reminds me of that "etch a cup" thing they sold in the 80s.
I never had it, but I always wanted it. Was that even a real thing or did I make it up?

The little cup was also the perfect size for a small Frangelico and lime ;)


I am ultra pleased with this purchase!
