Collections!
Saturday was a great day because I got to go to some fantastic antique stores and search for some "new" used items for my collections!
I decided to start a NEW obsession thanks to Jennifer Bowman! :) She has a great home & a fantastic blog! She recently posted some photos of butter paddles & I fell in love! :) I have always wanted some but had never bought any. After seeing her beautiful collection, I decided to start one of my very own!
I found 4 of them on Saturday and placed them in this little crock on my stoveboard.
I like how some of them have old chippy paint colors.
Then, while out hunting, I found another addition to my rolling pin collection! It is VERy worn and has a slight green color still left on the handles. It was only $3!!!
I found this HUGE slaw cutter for $10! This is only my second cutter but I am "itching" to find more! :)
I like to collect old kitchen utensils. This is my second biscuit cutter but I have NEVER seen one with a green square top?! If you fall in "love", you MUST buy it! :)
I finally bought a nutmeg grater that I have been dieing for! I think I will be wanting more of these as well! I am really liking how rusty it is!
I found a potato masher ...ON SALE! :) I have been wanting some of these too and hadn't gotten any so this will be the start to another collection! I love the handle on this one!
OK and this is not a collection but I think it is going to look just fantastic next to my "woolens" jar! :)
So...what are you waiting for...GET BUSY!!! Go out and search for your collection!

I love your collection of goodies and I saw a tiny glimpse of the rolling pin sleeve I gave you...would love to see it all.:)
ReplyDeleteIt looks as if we share a passion. I collect all kinds of antique kitchen utensils, as well! I can't even display them all. I'm thinking I need to pick out my favorites and purge the rest. Maybe an on-line sale?
