VTT - HEAVY METAL (NO, JUST TIN!)


Hooray, it's Thursday! I love old stuff! (Teen says, "I hate Thursdays - Science tutor!")


Here's a two-in-one that I picked up at an antique store here in town. I love this retro plant stand - think I might paint it red! The large biscuit tin is adorned with hollyhocks and a picket fence!
In general, I'm not a "blue" person, but I like it to intersperse with my reds. This tray was purchased with the above, might be part of a child's tea set. The border attracted me, not the color - it's so "suburban"!
Have a great VTT everyone! For those of you not familiar with VTT, it stands for Vintage Thingies Thursdays, where we get to show off our vintage items. It is hosted by Suzanne at Coloradolady.blogspot.com!

REDNESDAY!


Welcome to another wonderful week of red!
Yes, there is a red chimney on the cottage above!



Anyone care to learn Italian? This soft-cover book is from 1946 - cool cover, feel free to use it!

Jessie the Yodeling Cowgirl, from Toy Story 2, keeps a watchful eye on the colored pencils. I just love Jessie! They don't make adult-size t-shirts with her, though! I'm always keeping my eye out for anything Jessie, but there's not much. Maybe with the next movie.

A new canister in the kitchen!
