Vintage Thingie Thursday

I have come up a little short this week for pics to post for VTT.  I found some really good deals this past week-end, but nothing that I would classify as vintage.  So I have resorted to past finds that I have in my kitchen.  My corner cabinet has random items that I have collected over the past years or that I received when my Mother-in-law passed away.  They are NOT displayed cutely or anything like that---my talents don't extend that far.  The items have simply been placed on the shelves and left that way.  I still enjoy looking at them no matter how they are or aren't arranged.


I am also posting pics of some of the things in my hoosier cabinet.  And NO, I did not paint it green.  That is the color it was when I purchased it several years ago at an antique auction.  It really doesn't match my red and black kitchen, but it's old and chippy and I decided to leave well enough alone.




I will be linking to Vintage Thingie Thursday.   Please hop on over to her blog and check out what other thrifters found this week.

My COMMENT box had never worked for some strange reason.  If you will click on the title of this post a comment box will magically appear.  Please leave a comment--I love to read them.

  11. ckn babies, pigs, lamp sifterHi Debbie,
    I do like your old treasures. I especially like the mother hen with her babies, the cute pigs next to her, your oil lamp, and the white sifter with the apple decals. Your sifter reminds me of my grandma's old sifter. That Hoosier cabinet is a great find, too.
