Early Pyrex Christmas Gifts



 
As I mentioned, my boyfriend went to Columbus, OH & I told him it'd be a perfect time for him to visit the 53,000 SQ FT antique mall there & pick me up the perfect Pyrex Christmas present. I made him a Pinterest page with pieces & prices he should pay, he did not adhere to my price guide, but did to the pattern guide! I had to remind him that you're not supposed to tell people how much you paid for their present. 

For Christmas, I got: 
2 beautiful Black Snowflake space savers (with lids) - I now have 4 (two without lids)
a set I have been dying to complete - he got me the full set of pink Gooseberry Cinderella bowls!
& a Butterprint Bake Serve & Store - Yippie! 

Aren't they beautiful?

  4. Spoiled! You are so lucky. Your boyfriend and my husband sound very similar. Give me a list but I will ignore the prices. I would die if I ever came across that pink Snowflake space saver.

    Happy Holidays!

    1. The pink space saver wasn't from him, it just looked great with the black.

      I really didn't think he'd ignore the prices. Although, I think next time he'll lie to me about them, lol.

    1. I told him you said that, Six.. and he's like. NOPE. Just sat in the trunk! So I said, great, next time you can bring back more.

  6. At least, he is listening and doing what you ask now. Enjoy it as marriage tends to change things. Why, do not know. It should not but have seen instances where it does. He sounds like a good catch.
