Door Knobs, Hose Heads, and Casters, Oh My!


This fall my favorite junk shop opened a 'vintage boutique'.  People lined up for the grand opening.  Oww some very cool stuff was snagged before I could get to it but I was able to get these 3 large jars.  I've had them on my kitchen island with fall stuff, then Christmas balls.  So what to do now?


I'm stealing copying this idea from someone out there in blogland.  Sorry, don't remember where, if it's you, give yourself a shout out and I'll give you the credit.


These lovely rusty bits are usually in a drawer, waiting for me to create something with them, for shame!  Now they're out in the open, practically yelling at me to get busy!
 
 
Some day soon, or not, they will become these.....






Linking up with
Vintage Inspiration Friday over at Debra's Common Ground
and
Saturday Night Special at Donna's Funky Junk Interiors.

  2. I could look at rusty, crusty objects all day long! Hmmmm, what could I put in some jars? Now we need to know all about the background window piece. Love it! And you need to get your doorknobs and hose nozzles into your etsy shop ASAP!

  3. Suzanne,
    You were lucky to get those big jars...cool stuff inside.
    I would probably use them for flour, sugar and tea. But that is the cook in me. Ha!
    I just finished my sewing table and am going to post it today.
    Thanks for your comment.

  6. Love the rusty stuff too ... nice way to display them and as a reminder to make stuff if that is what you want to do. I especially like the door hardware.
    Hope you will come visit Timeless Treasures.

  9. They look great in the jars along with that gorgeous old window with all of the treasures hanging from it! It is nice to be able to see what you have gathered so that when inspiration (or time) hits, you are ready! Have a great week! t.xoxoxo
