Double sided cubbies

When we went to look at this cubby unit, we thought it had only one side, so were happily surprised to find out both sides had cubbies! The top is like a tool box, it is divided into two sections and the top lifts up and will close, leaving a flat shelf. I like it open though for more display space! This unit measures 36 inches wide and 50 inches tall. The sides taper and the base at widest point is 30 inches. The top narrows down to 15 inches. SOLD!

Very primitive slaw cutter

This is a fabulous primitive handcrafted slaw cutter. Constructed with square nails, it's just a beautiful work of art. The box will lift off as shown. I forgot to measure but the table is 48 inches so, the cutter is almost four feet long. SOLD!

Wall hanging hutch top

Someone removed the top of an old hutch, and I just love it now hanging on the wall. The two side pieces are still intact. There was a door at one time, but now there are just the outlines of the old hinges! I wish I had a collection of white ironstone, it would look amazing in this as it has very slight traces of white paint. Certainly not perfect, but perfectly rustic. Love this piece! Measures 32-1/2 wide by 35-1/4 high. 11-1/2 inches deep and the two side pieces extend another 16 inches down from bottom of cabinet. SOLD!

Old truck tool box

Either you need this for your old truck as a tool box, or you will find a way to repurpose it! I thought it would make a great potting bench. Top lifts up and has little divided areas, and front drops down for more storage, for pots, or tools. Wonderful rusty patina! Measures 39 inches wide by 14 inches deep and stands 31 inches tall. SOLD!

LOVE the paint on this one!

Amazing pillow back chair. The photo just does not do this painted chair justice. The colors are fantastic, several chippy layers, just the way I love it! I had to display it with the ice box door as they have similar finishes.

Heavy duty tool trunk

This tool trunk belonged to H. Farland! It has a saw inside the cover. Nice metal decorative corners, brass hinges, and handles on side. The paint on top is several different colors, it looks like it's rusty in the photo, but it's actually orange. The box measures 33 by 16 by 15 inches tall. This would make a fabulous coffee table! SOLD!

Model T (?) dashboard

I wanted to display this hanging on the wall, but ran out of time and energy. Maybe by this weekend, it will be hanging! The ampere and fuel gauge is still intact. Great rusty look! Has supports too which keep it free standing. Measures 30 by 26-1/2 inches. SOLD!

A new batch of bedsprings!

I think I have one dozen. They don't usually last long! ALL SOLD!

Rusty hanging scale

The face is so rusted you can't even tell who made it, but it was made in New York. Wonderful flat scale pan perfect for display. I can never resist these old scales! SOLD!

Primitive apple peeler

Wall mount or display on counter or table. This old primitive apple peeler has a wonderful look to it. Board measures 26-1/2 by 9 inches. There is a little handwritten story taped on back of where it was found. Very cool! SOLD!

Stoneware batter bowl, well worn!

This is the part about antiques that fascinates me, to see these old items that were so obviously used. It has a few cracks and some chips, but to me that tells the story of it's usefulness. Imagine the batters that were mixed in this bowl by loving hands! The diameter is approx. 10-1/2 inches. SOLD!

Wonderful little vintage folding wire cart

Great little folding wire cart for groceries or flea markets! Folds flat for storage, and has nice old rubber wheels. SOLD!
