I'm still moving along on this Stuff Diet without buying any new stuff. I may have to break with this to buy some books as presents for students in my class. Books never make me feel guilty.
I bummed a ride to Value Village with my student teacher on a lunch break this week. Below, find the ubiquitous, but still fabulous automic age glasses I found for .99 each. I've seen scratched up glasses like this before, which I've passed on. I'm sure in time, I'll be able to make up a set.
I'm still trying to thrift for the long-ago winners of my last contest. Shara, Tracy, and Chris - if you're reading this post, hang in there. Vintage thrift has all but dried up lately in Toronto. I'm sure if I bide my time, I'll hit the jackpot.
OHMIGOD!!!! I collect these, im trying to get a set of 16 (2 sets of 8 + 2 carriers) Iv collected 10 glasses and 1 carrier thus far. Be Proud Erin! This year, (by my decree) is "The Year of Turquoise and the Boomerang"!
ReplyDeleteFret Not Fair vintage lady! For these glasses are a FANTASTIC sign of things to come!
TRUST ME- :)

Mick,
ReplyDeleteIf I could turn your enthusiasm into a drink, it would come in a pineapple decorated with little umbrellas. I'd drink it all up 'cause it's good to the last drop.

ReplyDeleteLove these glasses! They are so hard to find for a good price! Congrats~ Vintage has gotten harder to find at the thrift lately but maybe as spring approaches people will do spring cleaning and donate their goodies!
