I'm coming to that point in my searching that I'm not running into much I don't already have. Here's what I found this past week.
With the exception of the Speckle Lines Promotional dip bowl (the tan with stripes), I have everything else pictured. I picked up the Butterprint 401, Blue Snowflake 043 and the 045 (or divided) lid as those are all in better condition then the ones I currently have. The Buffet Twins 473 I got so that I now have a set of twins. And the green square pan, well it's in great shape and I thought I might use it for a trade later. It's been about a 6 month frenzy that I've been posting my weekly finds here a Pyrex Collective III. I'm getting a bit burned out on hunting for Pyrex so often, so I think I'll start going about half as much and posting every other week.
I'm looking forward to garage/yard sale time. Hope I might be able to find some fun stuff I don't have already!! Even though I find stuff every week at the thrifts, it hasn't been easy. I do hope things perk up soon!

You are the best when it comes to Pyrex collection. I see a lot of different things here, but not sure what you area looking for.
ReplyDeleteLV, It's interesting how different areas produce different finds. Blue Garland Snowflake and Horizon Blue are two patterns I really would like to find but they seem to be so rare or getting snatched up before I find them!

I get burned out, too. I will miss your posts but I know at time we all need to take a step back :)
ReplyDeleteWould you know Jacquelyn, hubby is having a difficult with my decision to go less frequently. He'll likely stop by the couple thrifts close to the house on the way home from work on those days I don't want to go.
DeleteRest assured that if I get some great stuff in the next week--I WILL post! It would be to hard not to share my excitement! :0)

I just found your blog after seeing a picture on Pinterest......and after years of really collecting nothing except for dumb t-shirts (does anyone really need a t-shirt with the caption "Bling Bling" above a picture of Gary Coleman??) --- I finally found my calling!! I love thrifting and never really desired to collect anything specific...but this is just so fun and gorgeous. I am looking forward to catching up on all the blog posts!!! I'm a blogger too so I can appreciate your need for a time out too...enjoy your little break!!
ReplyDeleteYep! That's what happened to me Gigi! Never been much for collecting, but Pyrex turned on a switch and I'm hooked! I don't like shopping really, clothes, food...what a chore! But thrifting--I love it!

P.S. The Gary Coleman T-shirt cracked me up! :0)
