Pyrex! What is it about Pyrex that is so very appealing. Is it because of sentimentality or just because they are so darn cute??
Whenever I go to an Antique shop, I love to look for Pyrex bowls. It always amazes me how expensive these little gems can be. I don't often find them at the Thrift stores, but.......... once in a while..............
I found this large Pyrex bowl a couple of months ago. I have a similar one with the green flowers that was a wedding gift all those years ago. But I love Pyrex, and for about $3 I couldn't resist it.
And then today, TODAY I found this little beauty,
You know it really pays to make that one last sweep through the housewares. This bowl was NOT on the shelf when I went down the china aisle the first time. I wandered around the Goodwill, looked at the glassware, linens, furniture, and then went back to the aisle where the dishes were stacked (and I mean stacked today) and there it was, just waiting for me :-)
And although I have been seeing $8, $10., $12 prices at our Goodwill lately, this little piece of vintage Americana was $3! Yay!!!
Tell me, do you love Pyrex as much as I do??
Joining up with Would you buy it Wednesday?

YES! I would have bought both and do have the Americana bowl! Good finds at great prices.
I have some vintage Pyrex dishes. Since I do very little cooking, I have not used them in awhile.
I pick up pyrex bowls too! I love yours. I'm having a give away if you're interested (no bowls however!)
Love Pyrex and have quite a bit of it from wedding gifts back in '72!
Love the bowl I just picked one up at GW and it was a $1 of course it had $5 on it but was the dollar sticker and is the same pattern.
Then I found another set that are yellow with green I think? lol at another GW and I bought all 3 for $6
I have 2 pyrex casserole dishes I have had for 30 years and i love them. So it alway fun when you fine a fun piece.
What a coincidence! Yesterday I found the very same bowl featured in your second photo!!
Yes remembering a sweet time from kitchens of my childhood.I have the set of mixing bowls like your sweet find! Also some fridge containers which I use for things like cream cheese.
Great finds!
