Hello everyone!
I hope you’re all enjoying and are revving up for the season that is about to come upon us!
For my American friends, you’ll be gearing up for Thanksgiving, but we Canadians have long since celebrated that Holiday and are looking forward to the craziness and hustle and bustle of Christmas! (Well some of us eh?) lol.
In the meantime…
I Just wanted to share with you my beautiful yellow ware bowl that I found at value village last week.

I Just wanted to share with you my beautiful yellow ware bowl that I found at value village last week.
I found this little beauty peeking out at me from the back of a shelf. At 13.5 inches wide who could miss her?
I thought this must be a reproduction yellow ware bowl otherwise what would it be doing here selling for $4.99?
I grabbed it before anyone else could realize the colossal mistake they made by walking past this lovely lady and knew right away that this wasn’t any reproduction!
It was a genuine T.G. Green, Gripstand yellow ware bowl from the 1930’s in perfect shape!
Would I have liked it any less if it were a reproduction?
No, but knowing that this bowl has been around for eighty plus years and has graced the kitchen of a few generations makes it a little more special.
I’m happy to have her stay with me in my kitchen for a while!
Thanks for stopping by for a visit,
will be seeing you soon with some lovely Christmas inspiration!

Gorgeous bowl – and what a great price! Lucky you.

Great find. I am sure the baking will taste better out of that lovely piece.
What a find, Kim–that's a gorgeous bowl! She looks so pretty with that greenery and burlap. Can you believe, I just checked Ebay and there's a TG Green just like yours right now for $225!!
You Canadians have it right to space Christmas and Thanksgiving a bit. Now that Halloween has come and gone, it seems everyone here in the States is just waiting for Thanksgiving so they can get on to Christmas. 🙂
Take care,

It is in fantastic shape. I have my mothers old one, but the inside is grey and a bit worn from her beating meringue with her hand cranked whisk.
Lucky you for finding this beautiful bowl! I just love the buttery color.
Very nice bowl. I never find good stuff like that at VV…LOL
I have 2 of the exact same bowls that I paid a LOT more for so you got an awesome deal!

I stumbled onto your blog the other day and I just had to read each and every entry. I absolutely love your style! Thank you for the great ideas and I look forward to your future posts.
What a pretty bowl! I have found several cute items for my home from Value Village. You never know what you'll find there!
WOW, what a find, you are a lucky duck!!!! I have been following your blog for awhile now. I love your style.
Wow you did score. I have one that is the real thing as well. Not a scratch on the outside but you can tell that it has been well used. Picked it up a couple of years ago at a flea market.
I'm your newest follower from Ontario.

I am lucky enough to have a set of three. They never get put away.
I have one. It was my grandmother’s. I love it and am so happy my aunty chose to give it to me.
