While home in Ohio, with much encouragement from my mom, I went thrifting in my dads shed and garage. Above 1938 Ohio lic. plate commemorating 150th North West Territory Anniversary.
Once stacked high along the garage wall to hold tools and other items these wonderful pie cooling boxes are headed for a new home in my studio.
Wooden handle tools, what shall I do with thee but take you home too!
Tape measure and the cutest chippy green painted hand broom are a must.
Not to forget to mention all the little wooden handles found just left without a purpose...... I'm thinking there is a bowl you can fill somewhere.Gotta love "backyard thrifting", with all it's history of where it came from and who it belonged to.

Lovely vintage finds! Thanks for dropping by Beach Cottage Good Life Wednesdays and joining the party.
ReplyDeleteI just did this with my Mom before she relocated to Cali with my Brother... we were packing her up and she told us to take whatever 'Treasures' she didn't want or need to drag along... so much fun, I scored some great memorabilia in my back yard thrifting weekend at Mom's! Looks like you didn't do too bad yourself at your Dad's stash of Treasures... *winks*
