I got these vintage Pyrex pitchers and jelly jar glasses too
late to
use them this summer. Actually the tall set of glasses were sour cream
and peanut butter containers. They even still had their lids.
Next summer you can bet I will be serving up lemonade and ice
tea in them though.
My mom and I were busy little bees at this summer's yardsales
and flea markets. These are pictures of all the Pyrex either my mom or
I found for my collection. Keep in mind I don't pay over $10 and I am
quite sure my mom doesn't either.
I know what you are thinking... where do I keep all these? I
have shelves in my basement for them... but even I am coming to the
realization that I might have a problem on my hands soon. I need to
start limiting myself to only my favorite finds. It's hard though when
you find a mint condition Early American pattern 1.5 Qt Divided
Cinderella Oval Casserole for only $3!!!
Thank goodness for the Pyrex
Files and Pyrex
Love... these sites help me identify all the patterns!
In May I
found a cool cake carrier at a yard sale. When I posted the
picture to Flickr, someone informed me there was a bun
carrier out there too. I didn't find the exact matching one,
but I did find this bun warmer for $4. Close enough and who doesn't
like warm buns?
Aaron and I went to some flea markets this weekend with my parents and I had a
major score. I found a Fire King Egg Nog set for $12. It is missing two
mugs and the ladle but I think I may find those separately later
on.
I have been wanting some Fire King pieces but they are way
more expensive than my usual Pyrex pieces.
Aaron is especially excited because he loves egg nog.
I found these Pyrex Butterfly gold salt and pepper shakers
last winter at an antique shop. They match my Pyrex butter dish. Now I
am afraid to use any of them for fear of breaking up the set
