Happy Holidays!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday season! It has been awhile since I have posted...and I have somewhat lost track of my new finds! :) So, it is time for me to catch up. :)

I was really excited about Christmas this year. Even more so than usual. :) It was my first Christmas being married, and even though my husband was not home this year, the excitement is already building for next year. I have bought some very cute Christmas goodies.

My Christmas display of some vintage Pyrex! :)

This year, I started collecting vintage glass ornaments. My collection so far...LOVING the colors.

I made mini snow-scapes! :)

I also discovered that I love these little Christmas ornaments. These were some finds from a thrift store.

I. Love. Santa. Mugs. :) These were only 49 cents each!!!

And I can't forget about these little guys. Maybe I'll use them in some homemade snowglobes next year. I was very excited to find the Shiny Brite ones still in the packages!

I bought this cute little postcard and put it in a frame with some scrapbooking paper. I love it. The whole thig cost about $2 to make. :) Thrift store picture frame!

I have discovered vintage suitcases! I want to buy about 4 more so I can stack them to make a cute endtable. These cost $11 each.

I bought this Le Creuset Dutch oven for $10 at a local flea market!!!!!!! Bought the butter dish for $3.

Vintage Pyrex, Fiesta, and more...

I finally found a spring blossom green pan!!!! I've been hoping to find one. This one was $6.50.

Found these two pans, too. The large pan was $8.50 and the small one was $5.50.

Part of my updated collection!

I hope everyone is doing GREAT! :)

Thanks for looking. :)

Liberty Antiques Festival!

Hello! I know it's been a little while since my last post...but I swear I am alive and had a great shopping weekend! I went to the Liberty Antiques Festival on Friday!!! I couldn't get any photographs of the actual festival this year because it was pouring down rain....really....I got soaked! Haha. But, it was all worth it for some great vintage Pyrex finds.


Okay...my finds: purchased the sunflower casserole dish for $10 (yay!), the fridgies were $2 each, the blue horizon 1 1/2 pt bowl was $4, the amish butterprint pieces were a steal...all three for $10 (!!!), the striped nesting bowl set was $20 (very exciting), and finally the small green pixie casserole was $3. I am not sure what the aqua casserole underneath it is, but I bought it because I already had two of them at home and I loooove the color. And it was only $2!!! I love good bargains. :)


Now, I did not buy this at the antique festival, but I bought it at an antique store on the way home. It is a vintage Le Creuset "flame" colored pot! Bought it for $24! I was very excited about it. This is my first Le Creuset piece and now I am hooked.


So, this is just part of my Pyrex collection. I seem to have a few pieces stuffed here and there but I thought this display on top of my yard sale cabinet looked pretty cute. Can you tell I love the bright Pyrex colors? :)


Yes! Proof that Pyrex is stuffed everywhere. LOL. I didn't have anywhere to put these, so I stuck them up here. I love the aqua and the pink together. ---As long as they don't fall on my head. : P

Thanks for looking at my finds! What have you found lately that you were excited about?
