    Thanks for the chance to enter - the prizes you've collected are definitely beautiful (and they look great together), and I love the thought and the stories behind them. My best friend just bought her first house and has been raiding the local antique stores and thrift stores for vintage Pyrex, so I'm really entering in the hope that I can give her an extra special gift this year. Thanks again!
