I Spy, From the Corner of My Eye...

I made a quick run through a local antique mall this weekend. I was going to skip one aisle that never has anything good but my spidey sense told me to take a peek. As I was turning around to exit that aisle, what did I spy from the corner of my eye...


Spirograph (sans under plate)

I was pretty excited, I think I said "Oh my" a few times. All I had glimpsed was the lid but that was enough. The dish and the lid are in perfect shape, no scratches, chips, or any other flaws. And the next part? It was $15. When I saw the price I said something a bit stronger than "Oh my"!

Happy hunting!

P.S.: Now that I have the fancy-schmany iPhone 6 and a lot more storage space than my abused 5 I have done nothing but take pictures (I had run out of space on my old phone) and as a result, joined Instagram. You can find me at Jacquelynedinaz.

My #1!

Guysss!

Yanno that #1 on your list Pyrex 'want' list?!

I finally got mine! A beautiful, shiny Spirograph.

 
She's oh so pretty. {Please ignore the water ring - I live with 3 boys who don't know how to use coasters!}

Now some other new beauties acquired:


I've always loved the black & purple combo in the Midnight Bloom - gorgeous! And finally found a Bluebird!

I also found this sweet yellow-ish/gold piece {no idea what it's called! - I've seen "Gold Garland" & "Gold Bouquet"...neither of which I believe are true} & a minty Balloons 444!


Also, my new favorite size is the 471...how sweet are they stacked up?


And now, just because I have never seen one before...a Blue Chip Week! I couldn't afford it's $65 price tag - but still cool to see in the wild!


So...what's #1 on your list? :)
