Pyrex Finds

What a fun weekend that was! On the way down we hit 3 boring garage sales and 2 fleas. Needless to say the little green un-marked graduated Pyrex bowl was gone...oh well! You snooze,you loose!

I did find 2 things but I haven't cleaned them yet....I was too busy installing the air conditionner and washing these....

 

I found those at Cliff's flea market in Scarborough, Maine on Sunday. I was a bit down because I didn't find any Pyrex on the way down (except some Early American, tons of it! Early American lovers rejoice!)

Dan assured me I was going to find something GOOD that day! Boy oh Boy that sure was a statement!

I first came across the Atlas jar with a milk glass insert (In case you didn't know I also have a thing for vintage Mason jars...It's called Jarosis) and just had to have it. Then I saw that cute Pastel Stripes bowl that I've been looking for for nearly a year now; I kept seeing it in Ebay and Etsy for around 15$ to 20$ plus shipping....So I was real happy to shell out 7.50$! A couple of booths farther I was attacked by thie adorable Flamingo Party Pan for 2.75$, I just had to bring it home....

Here's a closeup of the milk glass insert. The Atlas jars were in fact made by Hazel Atlas.

 

Also at Cliff's I found the smaller Gooseberry casserole....On Monday we decided to go to York Beach and drove by the BoMar flea in Wells. There I found the pink Gosseberry casserole. It was 12$ and I decided to skip it. Dan asked me if I was sure I wasn't gonna take it and if I was gonna moan and whine about it back home....LOL! somebody knows me soooo well! So I went back to pick it up and lo and behold everything was 50% off! Cool! With lid! And minty too!

Look how cute the triplets look!

Gotta go! This is pool girl's time of the year too! Must remove leaves this morning!

I want to welcome my 56th follower, Leah@StoryBookRanch. Thank you for joining!

I will be joining Suzanne from Colorado Lady for some good ol' clean VTT fun! So hop on over and let the Thursday social begin!

Showcase Cupboard...OMG

Of course no pics! And the guy that's supposed to help me shop for a computer has not been returning my calls.....

And the tree guy hasn't showed up yet! I so feel like swearing now!

The cupboard is GORGEOUS! You'll eventually see a pic (eventually is a big word). It was a plain white melamine box before, but now it has a beautiful beadboard back painted the same tender green as the rest of the kitchen. The casing remained white. The edges of the shelves were also painted Corn Husk Green.

On the first shelf I place a Butterprint refrigerator set and a Turquoise one. Second shelf has a primary color refrigerator and some Pyrex party pans (lime,blue, and flamingo) and last but not least on the last one I put a 3 piece Turquoise bowl set (Pyrex of course). Now the only thing missing is a glass door....

It was the first thing I looked at when I came into the kitchen this morning! I love it! And I can hear the Pyrex singing!

Dan did a really good job!

Gotta go if I want to work a bit outside before the forcasted rain.....
