Vintage Glasbake

What a wonderful surprise this morning! My vintage Glasbake finned refrigerator dish made the Etsy front page! I am equally honored and suprised since I almost didn't rescue the dish from Goodwill because clear glass is so darned hard to photograph.

 

Well, off to the rest of my day...

Serving it Up, Retro Style!

It's that time of year.  Potlucks, office parties, progressive dinners.  I've been on a retro casserole kick these days and can't wait to show up at the next shindig with something really cool!

Check out these beauties currently listed in my Etsy Shop:

Fire King Danish Modern Casserole Etsy Listing

My favorite is this Mid-Century Danish Modern gold leaf number by Fire King. The pattern looks a little bit like snowflakes or sunbursts. The tapered legs are especially stylish and classic Danish modern. Perfect for swedish meatballs sprinkled with a bit of green parsley.

Vintage Glasbake Copper Covered Casserole Etsy Listing

This beauty from Glasbake has great style!  The base and lid are stunning copper with black handles.  The glass insert has a beautifully delicate pattern.  Perfect for mac-n-cheese with bread crumb topping.

California Pottery Tan Fluted Covered Casserole Etsy Listing

I love this elegant California Pottery with fluted lid.  The soft tan goes with any decor and the brass trivet is simply beautiful.  Perfect for mashed potatoes or bread pudding.

California Pottery Orange and Cream Covered Casserole Etsy Listing

I've featured this beauty before, but felt it was worth mentioning again.  I LOVE the creamcicle colors of orange and cream!  This is the perfect for your sweet potatoes with marshmallow topping.

Super Retro Green Glass Divided Dish Etsy Listing

This green glass divided dish isn't exacly a for casseroles, but I love the sophisticated look to serve up relishes, or perhaps after dinner mints.  The little etched glass starbursts add a touch of "Mad Men" style to your holiday table.

I hope you've enjoyed these vintage serving dishes as much as I have enjoyed sharing them with you.  Whatever you choose to serve up your holiday cheer in, do it with retro style!!

Thrift Stores, Yard Sales, I’m Having Fun!

I am so happy to finally come out of my deep work related hibernation and start listing stuff in my Etsy vintage shop again.  Don’t get me wrong, I am eternally grateful to have found full time employment, but it has cut into my treasure hunting time significantly.

Armed with strong coffee and my Yard Sale app, I prowled the neighborhood.  Wow, what a day!  I felt like a kid on Halloween!  So, here are the 2 boxes of stuff that I scored today.

 Cathrineholm Etsy Listing

This has to be my favorite find, a cobalt blue Cathrineholm lasagna pan

Creamcicle Casserole Etsy Listing

This was a pretty sweet find.  I love the creamcicle orange and white color of this very stylish California Pottery covered casserole dish.

Tupperware Etsy Listing

I love the lemon lime colors of these Vintage Tupperware Servalier stacking cannisters.  Bummed that the orange one had a cracked lid, so I didn't include it in the Etsy listing.

Santa Anita Ware Etsy Listing

I Found this Santa Anita Ware California Potter in its original box!  The colorway is called "Margarita Yellow"...I'll drink that!

Orange Sconce Etsy Listing

The Syroco mirror / sconce / shelf set from the weekend haul is in pretty good condition, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet.  I might list in on Etsy as-is.  I might paint it a bright, happy color like this vintage Dart sconce.  We'll see.

I’m not keeping anything from this haul, although the Husband tried to claim the Cathrinenolm lasagna pan because it matches his cobalt blue Le Creuset enameled cookware.  I listed most everything on Etsy to make room for next Saturday’s yard sale adventure.  Can’t wait to see what I can find!
