Pottery, Glass And Paper

Yet again I'm all over the place I decided to share a bit of this and that.

This vase found at a secondhand store was made by Royal Haeger Potteries located in the United States.

I picked up this dish I wasn't sure who the maker was and was surprised to see Corning Ware on the bottom.  The only name for the pattern I could find called it Avocado Corning Ware.

My boyfriend found this paperweight at a garage sale and brought it home for me.

This Anne Tainter postcard is one of many I picked up at the secondhand store I'll be sharing more of them in the next while.  Boy can I relate to this thought.

I picked up this casserole dish I think it may be English Pyrex but I do not know for sure.

These items I photographed in Fort Langley, British Columbia around the outside of the Village Antique Mall.

For once I can say I know something about this picture it's of my grandfather as a child with his father my great grandfather it was taken in a rock quarry.

Happy Halloween

I hope everyone has a great Halloween.

This clock has been in my family for some time I'm not sure if it's been passed down in the family or my dad found it in his travels.  Its a favorite of mind. The following is the information on the clock face:

Henry Birks And Sons. Ltd.

Seth Thomas

Made in the U.S.A.

These pictures in the collage are from a few years ago from my last Halloween party.  Most of my stuff is gone a friend's son and daughter-in-law do a big Halloween thing and are putting it to good use.

Halloween is about candy so I thought this Life Saver ad from the National Geographic Magazine would fit the Halloween theme.
 

This olive green Pyrex casserole dish is the Verde pattern.

This small Pyrex bowl is the Butterfly Gold pattern.

This bright green round Pyrex casserole dish is missing it's lid and not in perfect condition.  I've seen this dish a few times but it's always been in rough shape so I decided to get this one.

A Dress Mannequin, Pyrex And Paperweights

This weekend I didn't go to any garage sales Saturday or flea markets on Sunday.  I refused to get up when my boyfriend's alarm went off at 6:30 a.m. to get out there.  I just couldn't do it.  I got up at 8:30 a.m. and got some much needed housework done.  The following pictures are of finds I haven't had time to post till now.

This dress mannequin was a flea market find I got the body part and the base but it was short the pole in between.

Now we have a pole and it's standing tall.

My boyfriend found this piece of Daisy Pyrex for me.  It's a 80 oz. oval casserole dish with lid.

It looks like it was never used it was still in the original box.

This paperweight was a gift from my boyfriend.  It's signed on the bottom Edinburgh.  I'm not sure who made it all I know is it was made in Scotland.

These paperweights are part of my collection and unsigned.  I have a hard time not buying paperweights when I see them.

Finds And Visits This Weekend

This weekend we hit local secondhand stores and toured Granny and Grumpa's Antique's.

This Pyrex pattern is called Terra and began being produced in the 60's.  I found this casserole dish minus it's lid at a local secondhand store.  I'm on the hunt for a lid now.

These pictures are of some of the collection at Granny and Grumpa's Antiques in Abbotsford, British Columbia Canada.  It's a wonderful way to spend an hour or two if you are into antiques or vintage goods.  They have a bit of everything and it takes a few trips to take in everything they have.

Pyrex And Coat Tree Finds

The following items from garage sales, second hand stores and flea markets have been bought in the last couple of weeks.  I've been falling behind getting pictures and write ups done.

Horizon Blue Pyrex bowl this was found a few weekends ago at the flea market.

Garland Snowflake Pyrex casserole dish found a few weeks ago at the second hand store.

Butterprint Pyrex bowl was found at the flea market this past Sunday.

Butterprint Pyrex butter dish was found awhile back I can't remember were I got it.

                  
This oak coat tree was a flea market find this past Sunday I had just paid for it and someone else picked it up to buy it.  If I had been a couple of minutes later I would have missed it.
My new to me coat tree is holding my bags I've picked up for my second hand shopping.  The hat is a must have on hot sunny days I'm hopeful I'll use it sometime in the near future.

This is the makers plate on my coat tree.
