My bathroom is getting a makeover and I'm pretty sure one of them will end up on the toilet tank.<br /><br />We have a lot of my father-in-law's old hand tools.

The compressor went out and was told that it would be too costly to repair, so we purchased a new one. Things were built to last years ago but that does not appear to be the trend today.

New things aren't as sturdy and definitely not as lovely, to my eyes at least. I really enjoy my vintage scale. It's the last one in your inspiration photos! :) Thanks for using it.

I sold an old baby scale on e-bay a fewe months back. Love your display. I went to the thrift shop yesterday, and found some vintage lace, still on the cardboard, made in France!!<br />something about it I just love!!<br /><br />Have a great week!<br />Hugs,<br />DebbiePink Roses and Teacupshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07292534447306279495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2540459793417833940.post-11264216430378707052012-03-06T09:10:41.347-08:002012-03-06T09:10:41.347-08:00Becky I am with you all the way.

I use one of mine by my coffee pot to hold the cream, sugar and Sweet & Low. One is on my table with a small tarnished tray with birds on it and a small tarnished pitcher. The other is by my mantel shelf with faux herbs on it. I love to decorate with them and I really would like a couple more. :) I love all of the ones you found. They are so neat. Talk about things lasting forever, I had a freezer that was 30yr. old and it would not die. I hated it because it was so big and I thought I was going to have to shoot it to get rid of it. Finally hubby said just throw it away, so I did but it was still working. Gotta love those that were made in the U.S.A.Elsiehttp://google.comnoreply@blogger.com
