Sir Thrift-A-Lot: Flea Market Finds

Sir Thrift-A-Lot
in Flea Market Finds
with Her Library Adventures

It's been another light vintage week at the thrifts, but quality above quantity! 


I got these two beautiful, near mint Spring Blossom Green casseroles from Goodwill, $4.04 (473) & $6.06 (474). They had the 475, but it was missing the lid & wasn't really in tip top shape. Pictured next to it was a thrifted (!!!) Butterprint refrigerator dish. I'm always thrilled to find these at the thrifts. They are my pride & joy of my Pyrex collections - fridgies with lids found at thrifts. Also pictured are two glasses, found at two different thrifts in two different cities in two different counties, that couldn't be anymore perfect blend of colours. I was under the impression that they were Hazel Atlas, but now I am not 100%. Any insight? 



I love this mushroom canister! & a Esso "Put A Tiger In Your Tank" drinking glass from Goodwill. Would really like 3 more to make it a set!


Finally found a New Kids On The Block fanny pack, now I just need somebody who can alter it so I can wear it around. 1990, Winterland Productions. Paired with a 503 yellow refrigerator dish. I was psyched to find this, near mint dish because earlier in the week I found what I had thought was a 503 lid at Goodwill, turned out, I don't know what the hell I bought, but it'll do until I find another one & lesson learned, not to get caught up in the moment & to look for the marking. 


Happy Thrifting!

    1. No marks Vonlipi. I've got a shorter one too, looks more like a pint glass.. but isn't. Oh well. One day. I saw a set of 4 for $4 at an antique store.

    1. GET OUT! Too lucky! I only got to go to one & we sat at the very back, against the wall, I got my foot stuck in the door & Joey wasn't there! I remember my mom telling me he swallowed a fly..? LOL.

      I'll probably never wear it.. but you never know! I'd love to, but don't want to wreck it if I can't alter it (not very good with my man hands).
