thrifting overload

over the past week of two i have had many an opportunity to snatch up amazing things for even more amazing prices. i shall tell you all about it but first id like to showcase my most recent etsy addition. i came across a very lovely anchor hocking covered dish that is sure to produce smiles with all its shiny, pearly, milk glass goodness.



















thank you craigslist for your ever growing collection of the most random useless junk that every once in a while from it i can manage to discover something worth desiring. like a really freaking adorable 1900's entry table for $10. this was SO worth the little bit of a drive to the end of lancaster county to pick up.



















over the passing week or two ive gathered some items that make me enormously happy. while in western pa i thrifted a ice blue Fenton salt cellar thats a little rough around the edges, but still cute. also there was an old Pyrex mixmaster bowl. i already had the smaller one so i was grinning from ear to ear when i found the mate that is much larger, 3 qt maybe?



































in york county there was a GIANT pennsylvania dutch styled tin bread box. it was fantastic and begging to be bought, along with an aluminum colander. then today at my local salv army i spotted a near mint 444 gold script cinderella bowl, too bad the entire chip n dip set wasnt there. with the 444 i found a large Pyrex spice of life canister. i cant wait to wash all of it up and put it too good use.















i am definitely not disappointed. happy thrifting!!
