Sunday Sundry - Vol. 45

We moseyed through three thrift stores yesterday, with nothing particular in mind, as usual.  At the first one, I snagged some zippers, a piece of Pyrex it turns out I already had, and a paperback copy of Twilight!

This clear glass stoppered bottle was also among our finds.  I don't know whether it's old or new, or what it may have held in its former life.  I just liked it.

The second was a store I didn't even particularly want to go to, as I rarely find a whole lot there.  Although I did find an awesome paint-by-number a few months ago, so I guess that's not entirely true.  But you thrifters know the kind of place—run down and smelling like a combination of grandma's house and pungent mystery cleaning products.

There was a wig I had my eye on, but Norm talked me out of it.  He thought my head was too big for it.  Nice guy, huh?  Probably right though.  I'm not even into wigs, it was just an impulse.  It was short and cute, kind of a wispy/spiky reddish brown with lighter red highlights.  It probably would have looked ridiculous on me.  It was adorable on the styrofoam head though, topped by a military beret, all ready for Halloween. 

I did find a hard cover copy of Eclipse in the book section.  It's in pristine shape, dust jacket and all.

But here is what made my heart go pitter-patter, and then skip a beat when I saw the 75-cent and 1-dollar price tags!

I almost walked right by these, but then Norm pointed them out (he's got a good eye, that man).  They were on a rickety wooden shelf with some terribly junky nicknacks.

Beautiful, gold-leafed Georges Briard glass trays!  One is rectangular and the other square, both in perfect condition.

I just love the mid-century modern design.

At thrift store number three, there was a plethora of Pyrex I could not refuse. 

I did leave some behind, though.  Honest.

It must have been my day for gold embellishments.  Isn't that green divine?  I can totally see a holiday side dish in this casserole.

So there you have it, our thrift haul.  Gads, I need to get some stuff listed on ebay.  Time to rebalance the flow, you know?  I'm pondering a Pyrex giveaway too, since I've got some duplicates.

Gotta run!  Hope you're all having a great day!
