Circus Bear Vintage

Look what I received in the mail! Just some more to add to my owl collection!



I got them from Kayla at  The Dainty Squid. She has a somewhat new shop called Circus Bear Vintage!



This is by far my favorite owl figurine I owl so far!


I suggest you head over to the shop. So many cute vintage items and very fast shipping!

Thrifty 4- Pyrex Heaven


Last weekend my husband and I went to Santa Barbara just to spend the day there. The weather was perfect so we had lunch and before we went home we decided to stop by a thrift store to look for some Pyrex.



My husband is getting pretty good at spotting them. He usually finds them all first, then I give them a once over and usually buy them.

This one (I looked up online) is a promotional Pyrex Cinderella bowl


The outside is frosty white with gold leaves and baby blue on the inside


These casserole dishes we also found there! The bottom one (the black on white) had its original holder with it. I've never seen the holders before!





Once we get in a Pyrex hunting mode we can't stop! So we went to Ojai before coming home.
Here's what we found!


This at the first store...


This one at the second...


and oh my! Yes we found another full set! 
Aren't these pretty!? Not a scratch on them.


My shelves are getting pretty full! But I won't stop hunting. This just means I'll have to look for a pretty hutch for them all eventually.



I also found these Fire King mugs by Anchor. They were only 50 cents each! I see more succulents being planted here in the near future...

Happy Friday!

Vintage Canister Obsession

So it's been awhile and I'm going to try to start blogging more. I have some ideas lined up so keep following! 

I wanted to share with you all my current obsession with vintage kitchen canisters. I recently purchased these lovelies from Pocket Full of Heirloom on Etsy. 


I was very please when I received these in the mail! 


The packaging was so adorable.


Even the tissue paper was vintage! 


(old sewing patterns!)

I'm in love with my little kitchen. I'm in the process of fixing up my apartment a little so look out for some future apartment tour posts. Meanwhile look at these beauties! 





Happy Friday Everyone! Hope you have a great weekend.

Here's a sneak peak of a baby blanket I'm working on for a friend of mine...
