For the Love of Pyrex

Back in the day I had several sets of Pyrex, but they were the green and gold sets. Some of it made the trip to Colorado with me 20 years ago, and some didn’t.

As a mom with young children, as most of you know, you use plastic for many years. My girls are grown and gone, and John is no longer a baby so guess what – this mom has started a small collection of Pyrex again!

I sure would love to come across a few Pyrex pitchers and glasses like the set below. How awesome would these be in Esther (my 1960 Forester travel trailer)!

 

I think that this is one of my favorite patterns. I just love the colors – and yes, we have a few pieces in the store!

We have many complete sets, and single pieces if you’re looking to add to your collections, or start a new collection!

We will be doing a few articles on Pyrex. Check back for more info on it’s history and how to bring back the luster!

Have an awesome day!

ps. – don’t forget to share your pyrex collections pics with us!!

Pictures from The Spring Market @ The Rockin S Ranch

Three weeks after the VMD – Estes Park show, we did another one on a smaller scale in Johnston.

Rockin S Ranch is such a beautiful location. I could have stayed there much longer camping in Frankie.

Pictures from our Estes Park Show

Since we last spoke, I have done two, yes 2 antique shows in the span of 1 month. My 3rd show is schedule for August!

Below are just a couple of the pictures I took at VMD – Estes Park.

Without my sister’s ~ Thanks Vickie ~ help I would have not been able to accomplish such a task. I packed for 2 weeks prior (during store hours), 1 day loading furniture, 2 days setting up, 3 days selling, and then tear down.

WOW ~ and then 3 weeks later I did another show, on a much smaller scale!

Pyrex Collections

Last week I shared a little history on Pyrex being 100 years old. So today I though that we would share a few of our favorite Pyrex collections!

This is a beautiful collection – nice mix of colors and designs, casseroles, refrigerator sets, mixing bowls & more!

And for those of us that don’t have a large space, or a large Pyrex collection – this is adorable!

I love the apron collection & matching Pyrex, along with the yellow kitchen cart. So Retro!

Now I would love to find a set of these. I have never seen these in person, but would use them every day!

Pyrex turns 100 years old

Can you believe that Pyrex is 100 years old. Below is a graphic that shows a little history on Pyrex.

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE all of the old colors. I am not a big fan of the clear stuff.
