Hello vintage lovers!! Recently I did a what I have gotten off of my vintage wish list from 2018 posts. I did a few wish list posts in 2018 and for some reason never did them again. Sometimes I feel like there is no concept of time, I really did not think it had been that long since I made those posts. Time flies, now it is time to do a revised post of my vintage wish list. These are things I really want to find at estate/yard sales, thrift stores or antique malls. I really do not want to purchase off line but with my jadeite I had to make an exception. Also to finish my primary pyrex mixing bowl set, but I had been trying for 2 years to finish that set, I got desperate.
-Pyrex stripe mixing bowl set (this is one of the only things left from my old lists)
-Hazel Atlas pineapple jelly jar (another from my other wish list that I will never get but I can dream)
-Vintage jadeite hen on a nest (I have the reproduction but want the original)
-Fire king art deco jadeite vase
-Jeanette jadeite beehive flour and sugar shakers
-Jeanette jadeite measuring cups
-Fire king swirl bowls to complete my set (have the 7 and 8 inch)
-Fire king beaded rim mixing bowls to complete my set (have the 6 and 7 inch)
-Jadeite drippings container
-Jadeite towel rod
-Fire king tulip bowls
-Fire king tulip grease dish
-Pyrex butterprint-pink gooseberry bowls
-Pyrex butterprint butter dish
-Enesco blue prayer lady pieces (I would be happy to find any at this point)
-Chalkware mermaids and fish
-Ceramic mermaids
-Jewelry-clip on earrings-bracelets and necklaces (mostly rhinestone but anything that catches my eye is fine)
This is a few of the items I will be on the lookout for this coming up yard sale season, and when thrift stores open back up. I'm really upset that we can't go to our yard sales and may not be able to go till July. That will be almost the time they are over but what can you do, this virus is no joke and we need to stay home for now. Of course I am always looking for vintage christmas but that will be in a separate post cause there is so much I want!

What Have I Gotten Off My Vintage Wish list Since 2018????
Hello vintage lovers!! How have you been since quarentine started? I have been going crazy not being able to go to the thrift stores. I won't know what to do when I get to go back, there will be so much to look at and I am trying to be a good girl and not buy a lot. Guess we will have to cross that bridge when we get there. Anyways.... I thought it would be fun to see how many items I have gotten off my wish lists I made in 2018 on this blog. Below are the lists from both blogs I will mark what I have gotten with an *.
-my absolute holy grail item is a jadeite hen on a nest. I have been looking for one of those for years.*I this one is a toss up because I did find one but it is reproduction but I guess that's better than nothing.*
-speaking of jadeite I also want a
- mixing bowl *Check from yard sale $1!! Also got a few more from antique stores prices $15-$30*
-measuring cups*Another reproduction items $10 from lakeside collections*
-batter bowl*Check from ebay $25*
-shakers (salt, sugar, pepper, etc)*Half check I got the pepper (antique store $11) and the salt (ebay $20) haven't been luck enough to find the others yet.
So pretty much if it is jadeite I want it!
*I will say that I have purchased quit a few vintage and reproductions jadeite pieces in the past couple of years*
-lady head vase (trying years to find also) *Check for this one! I found my first lady this past summer at goodwill for 1.99 she is a Christmas one but I love her!*
-pyrex primary color mixing bowl set (just need yellow and green, already have blue and red)*Check this off my list as well I finally broke down and bought the yellow and green off of mercari for $40 so now I have a complete set that cost me $45.*
-pyrex striped mixing bowl set*Have not been lucky to find this set yet but I'll keep trying.*
-fruit shaped jam/jelly jars *Check for this too! I found the strawberry (estate sale .50) and the painted apple (antique store $3).*
-lady head vases*Ummmm.... obviously I can't proof read worth and darn cause this was just 3 items up. Good lord... Guess I really want those lady heads....
This is the second blog post I wrote about a wish list. It was from October 2018. There isn't much on this one but we will take a look to see what we have found. Not sure why I wrote this post but at the time I felt it needed to be done. Something else I don't understand is why I haven't wrote any new lists in 2 years...... Oh well moving on....
-The elusive hazel atlas pineapple jam jar*Yeah right I am never gonna find this piece but I can keep wishing!*
-The mini bowls to the pyrex hostess set in red*That is a nope on this one too but I will say I'm not really looking for this anymore. I think it peaked my interest at the time cause I had found the big bowl but now I am over that set.*
-Hen on nests (any size color or animal)*Ok this another one that is a not sure, I have found some milk glass ones at yard sales but not other animals. All you can do is keep looking.
-Jadeite juicer *Finally a check, got this off ebay for $20*
-butterprint pyrex*A sorta check, found a 404 cinderella bowl for $25 at an antique store but that is all for now*
-kitchen tools *Another one that I am not sure why?? Do you ever do that?? At some point you want something only to not later*.
-dooney purses (from early 80s/late 70s)*Check! I have found at least 2 so far one at goodwill, oh actually both at goodwill for $3 a piece.*
-pyrex butter dishes *Check to this too, I have found 2 spring blossom (one at salvation army 2.89 and one at Goodwill for $2 I can't leave them when I see them and a butterfly gold for 1.99 (I think) at goodwill*,
Well that is the end of my lists from 2018, think I did pretty good. Checked most of the items off and changed my mind on a few (that is a good thing cause I like way too much stuff as it is). I am sure that all of these items have a post dedicated to them on my blog if you want to look them up to get better details. Also sometimes I tell pretty good stories you might enjoy in my posts. This has made me want to set down and do a new wish list post, guess I need to because pretty much everything was checked off anyways. Take care and be safe out there!
