Anyway! At the estate sale I went to I spent all of $1. I purchased a Fisher Price Little People figure of Mr. Hooper (from the Sesame Street play-set) and what I think is a Barbie cat... I haven't had a chance to look it up yet, but it has a big "B" on the flank and I'm sure it doesn't stand for "Bratz" because she has cute (non-sultry) eyes. The lady that was the cashier said she thought it was kind of freaky. I said it was way less freaky than the antique dolls that were undressed and falling apart!
At the thrift stores I found the gooseberry pink Pyrex dish and the Lady Lovely Locks book. I thought the Pyrex dish was priced a little high, but oh that color! If it was harvest gold or avocado green I would have left it at that price. Overall it turned out to be a pretty girly pink day (+ Mr. Hooper...)!
I have listed the Lady Lovely Locks book in my Etsy shop: Lady Lovely Locks Book: Silkypup Saves the Day! As always, if you'd like to check out other items that I have found on my thrifting adventures (with more pictures) or are interested in purchasing something you've seen here please stop in to my Etsy shop: Manatee's Toy Box on Etsy

I think that is the first piece of pink pyrex (say that three times fast)that I've ever seen. Oh, it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the pink pyrex and I love your toy finds. I am always looking for toys myself
ReplyDeleteTammy - it was certainly the first pink piece of Pyrex I had seen in real life (I had only seen pictures before)! I snatched it up fast! :)
ReplyDeleteLeAnn - good luck hunting for toys! :D Great to hear from a fellow toy thrifter!
Does the pink pyrex sell well? There was one similiar at the t.s I go to but I did not want to be stuck with another piece of pyrex I can not sell.
ReplyDeleteI like the pink Pyrex!
ReplyDeleteIt would surprise you what is legal to sell. It's legal to sell shrunken human heads, human skulls, brains..
Beckyp - I don't know! It is the first piece of pink Pyrex I have picked up, and I've never tried to actually sell any Pyrex. Wish I could help!
ReplyDeleteSir Thrift-a-lot - skulls and stuff eh? That's pretty crazy! I just know that it is illegal to sell endangered & protected species in whole or part. I saw some small birds, and what looked like rhino horns (though the listing claimed they were fake, so who knows). It just seemed iffy to me.
Good decision - taxidermy hippos sound pretty sketch to me! I have the old Sesame Street set from my childhood and I love Mr Hooper!
