Thrift Haul Tease.

A LOT of stuff has made it into my house in the past week.. it's overflowed from the top of the credenza and onto the floor!



I need a day or four to wrap my head around all of it & get it all in order.
Pyrex, Fire King, linens, 1980's, nostalgia, items for resale.. 
Stuff flown back on a plane, picked up at thrift stores, bought off Craigslist. 
I've been busy.

Fiance says it's too much...

      Oh yes! It's awesome. I saw it at an antique mall last year, never bought it.

      Does yours still have the scent in it? I'd like to remove mine.

      I'm thinking on trying this: http://www.ehow.com/how_6585878_perfume-smell-out-bottle.html

    Wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of those yellow and black daisy space saver casseroles. Nice finds!

      Thanks! :)

      I also found the pink (or coral red) snowflake space saver last week. It's been a good week.

    Oh Boy! I see way too many good things in here! I hope you open up those bags and show us more! Love the MLP cake pan! Looks like you made a killing in PYREX!

      Thanks!

      I think it's time to start making cakes if I'm going to continue to buy cake pans... makes sense, lol.

      Pyrex haul was pretty huge, but gonna gift my first pieces, too, from these ones.

    I spy a My Little Pony cake pan! (Confession: I was watching the new cartoon while getting ready for work the other day. And it actually cheered me up). Also, I think I see some sort of bow tied pig. Is that Porky!?

    Ahhhh too many cool things.

      If it's Porky, he's very sinister! I never got him this week, he was just chilling on the credenza & got caught up in all the excitement.

      My Little Pony has new episodes!?

    Hello Sir Thrift-A-Lot. Today I wondered across a blog by A Little Bit of Everything and now you! Such an interesting day!! I'm from Oshawa and wanted to give you the heads up on a different kind of Yard Sale in Hampton. (East of Oshawa) Perhaps you saw the ad on Kijiji? It's being held at the old mushroom farm on Taunton Rd. I almost can't sleep I'm so excited to be attending myself!! If you have a spare minute have a peek. I would bet you dollars to donuts you would be semi interested!! Awesome blog. Still reading while I wait for dinner;).

    Love that pig in orange and black! I first thought it was my hoot owl blow mold for Halloween!
