Dab of This and That: She Has Been "Junkin" Again....

A recent stop at GW, daughter added a few pieces to her vintage collection.
1971 King Seeley thermos.

1980 SL cookbook. She found several neatly, handwritten recipes tucked inside the book.

I have looked every where I know to look trying to find info. on the milk glass compote, as far as age, value, etc., and could not find one with the exact same pattern. Found many similar with a very wide price range.

Also, a pyrex cup to add to her on going collection, and a wire basket with wooden handle that is a reproduction, but will fit right in with her country/vintage/retro kitchen look.

thermos .99

cookbook l.99

wire basket 2.00

Pyrex mug .49

milk glass compote .99
Looks like she found some treasures.

Yep! I'd say she had a pretty successful "junkin" trip.

How about you - Been "junkin" lately ?

Linking up with "Be Inspired"
                           "Thrifty Things Friday"
   "Mosaic Monday"
                           "Nifty Thrifty Tuesday"
   "Inspire Me Tuesday"
   "Wow Us Wednesday"
Have a great week!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

That thermos really is interesting. I like the old vintage coolers, there are so many cool ones.
But I need to have a garage sale first, my I have a lot of stuff to get rid of.
