My lil Treasures


My name is Amy and I am proud to be apart of The Pyrex Collective.

What do I do when the kids are in school? I go junking!!! Here are my 3 lil finds from yesterday.

Fire King (1PT), dainty, wheat, casserole dish with lid for $2.

Then I found the pretty, orange, wheat Pyrex (# 472-B 750 mi) for $1. I believe I have an extra lid for it too.

An sometimes I even hit the junk shops twice in one day (wut?!?). This pretty fridge dish w/ yellow flower (501 B 1 1/2c) $.75.

Hoss (my 7y/o) was looking at these this morning and he asked me if he could start collecting Pyrex too.

  3. Darling little treasures indeed!

    If your 7YO is interested now then you are lucky ~ hopefully your treasures will have someone who wants them if you ever break up housekeeping.

  4. That is really sweet!

    It also means that you can drag your kid to thrifts and fleas! Super COOL!

    Better to start them young :)

  5. He has actually found a couple of my pieces while he has been out junking with Hubs. 1 of my favorite of his finds is a pink daisy oval casserole.
    Of course, he isnt exactly quiet when he does find them...we've had to talk to him about this. A few times, he points and says (loudly) PYREX!

  6. That's cute! But tell him to keep it down. Haha. Wouldn't want any other Pyrex scavengers coming over to see what the fuss was about!
