Thrift Finds

 I ♥ church rummage sales. These sales have a wonderful mix of items, the prices are reasonable, I never leave empty handed, and I am never disappointed.




I spotted the Pink Flamingo cake pan priced for only $2.00 and snatched it up.
The cake pan is my fifth piece of Pyres. Does this mean I am now a collector?


I was walking to the pay station when I spotted this cheerful plate 
and imagined many uses for it.  I was surprised to see that it was a Pyrex plate. 
I don't know if this is a new item or vintage piece. Either way I love it!

At a family run Estate sale I found a few things that I really, really liked.


This make-up suitcase measures 10 x 14 x 6. Has the owners initials embossed on the front, and came with five glass containers with elastic bands that hold them in place.


Hoping this wish bone pin will bring me good luck, and I think it's cute.


This Wagner Ware cast iron pan was only 25¢. This cast iron pan was loved  had no rust and was well seasoned.  I took it home gave it a good wash up and made hamburgers and onions in this pan.

  6. Nice finds! Believe that pyrex plate is the "underplate" for the promo Friendship covered casserole. Not 100% sure, but I think likely.
