Vintage Inspired Dollar Tree Drinkware


I have always had a little bit of a fascination with drinking glasses.  I remember when I moved into my first apartment, I went to the Goodwill store and bought $20 worth of just drinking glasses (those of us who go thrift shopping know you can get a lot of drinking glasses for $20).

I dont really know what the big attraction is but I love all different kinds of them.  I especially love vintage glasses.  (I actually love vintage anything)

You may have noticed that lately a lot of department stores have been selling these beautiful vintage inspired hobnail glasses.

Pier One Clear Dots Drinkware $6 for one

PB hobnail outdoor drinkware  $36 for six

I LOVE them!!!

Unfortunately   They are way too costly and I can't imagine paying that much for a set of four glasses, regardless of where they come from.

Last week while I was in Dollar Tree looking for four inch round mirrors for my PB inspired Parat mirror, I came across these beauties.
Dollar Tree Libbey Drinkware $1 each, for a total of $8

They are 8oz clear vintage inspired glasses. While they are not exactly hobnail, they still have that look that I LOVE.  And let me just say these are NOT made cheaply, they are very heavy, and just in time for Easter.  Ya wanna guess how much I paid for all eight?  Only $8 of course.  Everything in that store is $1 . 

I also noticed that there were many other types of drinking glasses that I would love to have, and for only $8 that is a very thrifty way to fill my drinking glass collection.


Anyone else love to collect drinking glasses?
