Old salt -
used,
chippy,
rusty,
and perfect in an imperfect way.
I love these old tins with the old graphics and chippy white paint! This one reminds me of one that may have been in an old mercantile shop. Now it sits with other old favorites up on top of an old white cabinet. Home sweet home for this old salt.

Miss Fiona thanks you for all of the wonderful offers to come and play with her and for the kind words left in her behalf!! You are all so sweet!!
Oh I just love old treasures. And you have such a gift to make them look so lovely!

Oh Vignette Queen you are oh so inspiring! Love to see how you put these disparate things together. Clock? Salt tin? Rulers? Silver cup? Who would have thought these things would go together? I am so glad you did and you shared it with us today.
ReplyDeleteThe looks so quaint in among your other treasures. Thanks for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend. ~Natalie
Love this SALT tin!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you LOVE to go back in time and see it all shiny and new in the country store.
Amazing that they use to have SALT in tins like that!
Snuggles to Fiona {Doogan can't stop DREAMing about her} and Wags to Doogs!
Happy Weekend Sweet Girl!

I love your old treasures that you collect.
ReplyDeleteI just saw a picture of Fiona in between the railings on the staircase. She looks just like my Sadie (Welsh Terrier) but the face is the same. Sadie always climbs the stairs and than puts her face between the railings to look down at you.
Love your fur babies.

"Perfect in an imperfect way" What a great way to describe such treasures. I have a few and they are packed away because of their "imperfections." I need to go look for them.
ReplyDeleteI love chippy, and old I gravitate to all things like that. It has been way to long since I have stopped by, I don't blog like I use to. My work hours have changed and my husbands as well. I love your new blog look it's so pretty.
ReplyDeleteTake care of yourself,
Ginger
