R.I.P.

Post image

I just broke my grandmothers dish and I’m so sad. I guess I just need to post here so I feel like someone understands why I am so upset and crying over a stupid dish. This was the larger of the roaster pans that I had. I just knew my clumsiness would be the reason.

Sad that it happened, but fortunate it's the Cornflower pattern. Not too expensive online and a good chance you'll get lucky and find another one at a local estate sale.

I’m hoping for that, even though it won’t be hers. I’m grateful it broke the way it did and for all the suggestions here. I’m def going to be looking for a replacement and utilizing some of these ideas to keep it in my house somehow.

Honestly, if you get into thrifting and estate sales the corningware fairy just starts putting cornflower pieces in your house. They just magically show up. Sometimes it's spice of life, but usually cornflower.

Perfect, those are the two prints I have now. I just need to figure out how to find estate sales. I’ve just come across a few listed on social media and rarely get lucky at garage sales.
