A few finds!

On a recent weekend camping in beautiful Durango, Colorado, my daughter and I had a few Pyrex finds!
There was a flea market on the weekend at their fairgrounds and we scored the turquoise bowl for $3 and the 2.5 quart oval casserole called Hex signs or I also found it called Snowflake, (I like that better) for $5! The casserole is a 1958 promotional and I always snatch those up. We found the Desert Dawn cake dish for $2.99 at a thrift. It was so grimy and had baked on yuck...with some oven cleaner it cleaned up great!


My only find in an antique store was this adorable 2 cup carafe called the Little Gold Jug (1958)! I love the carafes and this is the second one we have found. My daughter kept the first one because her birthday is on St. Patrick's Day, naturally I wanted one too! I plan on using this one for syrup.


Then today I stopped in on an estate sale and got this 403 turquoise beauty for $2, a few scratches but still pretty! Gosh, I hope I happen onto the others!


I hope Pyrex hunting is going well for all and you have a great weekend! Head over to thevintageshelf.blogspot.com for some pictures of our weekend in Durango, Colorado!
