My mother had that mixing bowl set when I was a kid, a few months I came across the set in an op-shop and bought it for a friend for $15. I am not a 70s collector or Pyrex enthusiast, but couldn't pass up the bowls - they were in mint condition. I also saw them for sale recently in another secondhand store for around $65, and $150 in another - they are out there!
I'm a slightly off-beat Toronto-area teacher who enjoys writing and photography. I come from a family of collectors and now I'm dragging my own family around to yard sales. It's just a bit of fun. Enjoy the scenes.
Hey cats!
My husband and I stock a booth rammed to the rafters with vintage treasures at Valley Antiques in charming Dundas, Ontario. It's a few kilometers west of Hamilton. Come visit this best kept secret in Southern Ontario and swing by Valley Antiques. There are over 50 vendors selling cool and beautiful things and you won't be paying Toronto prices (speaking as a former Hogtown gal).
