When I saw these beauties sitting on top of my grandmother's washing machine, I gasped.
I believe I’ve made my love of milk glass known, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that whenever I visit thrift stores I’m always on the lookout for interesting pieces. I wasn’t on the lookout for anything, however, when I was at my grandmother’s house earlier this week helping her make jam. I went into the laundry room and saw these two beautiful serving dishes sitting on top of the washing machine, and I literally gasped. After informing me that she never uses them and making me promise not to break them, my grandmother told me I could have them. I am ecstatic! Wouldn’t a strawberry cake (my grandmother’s recipe, of course) look beautiful on the larger one?
I can just imagine serving a hot and gooey blueberry pie in this.
Then yesterday I went to Columbus to visit with friends and family, and I dropped a trunkful of clothes off at the thrift store. Although I’m really trying to spend any money, since I was already there I figured it wouldn’t hurt to just take a peek inside. I’m so glad I did! In addition to the big bag of dinnerplate dahlia bulbs I scored for only $2, I found this sweet little milk glass pie plate. I’m so excited at how my little collection is growing!
