Piddling Around in the Kitchen with Vintage Finds

Hello Everyone! 

With temperatures in the triple digits this weekend, I spent most of my time piddling around doing little odds and ends inside.  One of the places I piddled around in was the kitchen.  I  placed some of the vintage things that I bought on my birthday weekend getaway to Pennsylvania a few weeks ago.

The vintage postage scale you see on the shelving was a purchase. It’s small and fits perfectly on this shelving in the kitchen.

  I love the patina on this old postage scale!

I have had some luck lately finding a variety of wooden boards.  On our Pennsylvania trip, I found a slaw board that I placed on the wall to the left and a…...

….pig cutting board.

I have the pig cutting board stacked in with other wooden boards on my kitchen entry way table.

This vintage basket on wheels was love at first sight except for the price!

   The vendor at this antique mall in Pennsylvania was asking $95 for it and the sales ticket said FIRM!

Needless to say, on our first trip to this mall, I didn’t purchase it.  I left it behind and thought about it all night.  I asked Charlie the next morning if we could go back and see if they would/could lower the price and guess what….they did!  They took 10% off!   Still a little more than I wanted to pay but it was better than paying the asking price.    

Just look at the wheels on this basket!

I placed it beside the entry way table in the kitchen for now.

I still have a few more things to show you that I bought on that trip.   I just need to “piddle” around a little more with them. 

As always, thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a safe and wonderful 4th of July!
