When I was shopping before Christmas last year, I saw some pretty turquoise-colored goblets from the Pioneer Woman collection at Walmart and put them on my wish list for family who had been asking what I'd like. I got the six glasses I requested and was pleased. Later, I saw online that there was a matching glass pitcher, but it was sold out and I didn't think any more about it. Then on Saturday, I was in Walmart in Carrollton, searching for Star Wars Legos for my nephew, Matthew, who turns 8 today, and lo and behold, the turquoise Adeline pitcher was on clearance for $9!
The embossed pitcher reminds me of old-fashioned sandwich glass, and it's a nice, sturdy pitcher, so hopefully it will last me for a nice long time. They also had a gold one on clearance for $9, and it later occurred to me that would go nicely with the gold tea goblets I pull out at Thanksgiving, so I may go back and see if that pitcher is still there.
There's even a "Pioneer Woman" stamp inside at the bottom of the pitcher, which I thought was a nice touch. And for my fellow glass collectors, I should probably mention that I also saw some footed dessert dishes in this design in what looked like white milk glass, which would be great additions for those who collect milk glass. (Maybe some of you?)
Oh, wow! I LOVE those goblets and pitchers, the only thing that has stopped me from getting the aqua ones is a severe lack of storage space. :-) I'm so glad you found that one and at a clearance price, too! I'm going to check my local WM but I think they've been out for months. I like that they put the PW logo on the bottom, these are based on old glass designs but there is no danger of mistaking one for the other with that marking.
ReplyDeleteThe pitcher is a charmer ♥
ReplyDeleteGlad you have a pitcher to match your glasses. I hope you found some Star Wars Lego.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so awesome - how lucky to have found the matching pitcher!
ReplyDeleteAnd - of course- last month we bought OUR nephew Star Wars Legos for HIS birthday...and just happened to discuss it at dinner tonight with friends.
Angela, what's up with all our coincidences, seriously, this is getting kinda silly.
You are my cosmic soul sister! Hugs. ♥
These are very pretty. Congrats on finding the matching pitcher!
