Collecting Fire King and Pyrex and Plastic Bag Rugs
08/28/21 • 31 min
TOP PODCAST EPISODE! In this episode we get into the wonders of old borosilicate glassware , bakeware and fired on ware such as Pyrex, Fire King . Why has this stood the test of time in the collectibles market?
We also talk about plastic rag rugs, which are actually made from plastic bags, hence the name Plastic Bag Rugs. These are a great way to repurpose plastic bread bags and make a great focal point in the vintage home. I found a vintage one at an antique mall, and also bought one on Etsy from BLWworld
Please listen to my NatureChalet or ParanomalChalet podcasts!
