Where to find milk glass in Ontario

While I definitely have a favorite shop when it comes to finding milk glass in Ontario, I'm always on the look out for new places to expand my hunt. So I thought I'd start a post here to be updated whenever I make new milk glass discoveries.

A note about party or wedding milk glass

Before I get into the more serious haunts, for those who are searching for milk glass in Ontario as part of  wedding, shower or other party decor your best bet for the vases and planters that seem to be the most sought after party or wedding milk glass pieces is definitely a consignment store like Value Village, Goodwill or the Salvation Army, or on Kijiji. The great think about consignment store milk glass is that it's dirt cheap. You can find a stars and bars patterned vase, like the one seen below at $.99 for a short up to $2.99 for a tall.

The not to great thing about sourcing the consignment shops for your milk glass in Ontario is a) the vases are often quite dirty inside(not that you won't be washing them anyway) and b) it can turn into a scavenger hunt, since you rarely find more than 3 or 4 vases at a shop at one time.

As for Kijiji, this is probably your best bet for wedding decor milk glass, since you can always find a few people selling lots of milk glass vases, most likely after gathering them via consignment store for their own wedding/party. You can get the vases you need, usually in one easy purchase, and without the added expense of USA to Canada shipping that goes with purchases made on Etsy or eBay.

Let them eat ruffle cake!

Ruffle cakes -they're vintage cute, they photograph beautifully and they are absolutely everywhere. Thankfully, they're also very easy to make. I created this strawberries and cream ruffle cake for Lady J's baby dedication reception a few months ago using this ruffle cake tutorial from Duncan Hines.
