  1. Love the Pyrex with the shrooms - I remember my grandma had that kind of faux fruit - it took me several times to catch on that it was fake. :)

  3. Love to find pyrex. Gives me a thrill. Cute Buddha. As for the fruit my mom had some in our den but I am most surprised they are not all dusty from the years. Did you wash them?

    1. Elaine, they were dusty and smelled of cigarettes. So I let them sit outside in the sun and rain for about four days and that fixed them.

  6. Love the pyrex and it's pattern! The fruit is WONDERFUL, looks good enough to "EAT"... Not quite sure of the BUDDHA THOUGH(too much makeup).I would have to paint him a solid color, and somehow try to keep his shawl the color it is(hmmmm, too much, BUT I LOVED his SHAWL)...
    Have a great weekend,
    Hugs,

  11. I agree with Diane about the nipples. A little strange, but other a cute guy. I think faux fruit is cool. Do you remember those big old glass grape clusters that people had on their coffee tables in the 70's. I think those are coming back too!

  12. Pyrex is timeless. I'm a little nuts, I'd probably paint the fruit. lol
