Depression Glass and What Else?

Mom loved dishes - she seemed to really like depression glass, particularly pink and green.  I never took much stock of these dishes before but now I wish I had and maybe I would know more and be able to identify them.    I brought back a few and also her trusty identification book, but when you don't know much about depression glass, it's not easy to pick the patterns out of a book.  I know it won't be long after I post this that I'll get some help.

I've been trying for a couple of days to get the right light to take pictures in the house, but it's just not working so I dragged them all outside - at least you can see some of the pattern.

This is a very delicate dish - maybe for candy?

Would this be "Open Rose" by the Anchor Hocking Company?

Or is this footed cake plate "Open Rose?"

This is a very small footed plate

Love this bowl!

Another nice cake plate

I know this belonged to my grandmother, I included it as it's so very pretty - she used to keep change in it.  It's a pretty fancy bowl for that!

This belonged to her too, it came out at Christmas only, it was for grapes and apples.  

Do you recognize any of these patterns?  I'd love to know just what they are, help me!!!

Today I'm linking up with Thriftasaurus and Inspired Sunday - check out all the great posts!  There's a new link up party today - We Call It Olde over at We Call it Junkin - I'm linking up, you should too!!!

Pretty Pyrex

The Pyrex posts are few and far between these days but I'm going to share a couple of pictures with you today that I was taking for a Pyrex Photo contest - the details are on Fresh Pastry Stand's Facebook page.  

The full set of pink fridgies was probably my best find, EVER, at Value Village, they're in mint condition, that's a day I won't soon forget.  The post that I wrote about finding those beauties is my second most viewed one, I still see the original picture all over Pinterest, they are a beautiful set!   The delphite blue pieces were given to me - one of the small fridgies even has the old blue lid, those pieces were made in Canada.

I shared these bowls not too long ago, they are all thrifted pieces too.  Can you see a pattern with the colors?  It's for the contest!

Here's a couple more pretty blue pieces - two sugar bowls that were both made in Canada, both pieces were also thrifted. 

I feel so lucky to have found all these great pieces at thrift store prices because I sure don't see much anymore.
