On The French Bakers Rack

A vintage French wrought iron bakers rack

Found at an estate sale a couple of years ago

Finally has a place to call its own

in the dining room

I spent many hours over the summer

cleaning and painting and polishing

{those brass decorative pieces were black with tarnish}

This piece of history is at least a hundred years old

and for many decades was in a Paris bakery.

I have a few more boxes to unpack and clear out of the dining room,

and pictures to hang, then will take some photos.

It has a warm 'old world' feel that is so cozy.

The Fitz and Floyd soup tureen and dishes

were from another estate sale, 

bought on 'half price' day.

Much of the decor in our home was found at estate sales,

flea market shops, antique and discount stores.

How I enjoy the hunt for that perfect home accessory,

without spending a boatload of money!

{because that ship has not come in}

I'd enjoy hearing about some flea market  treasures you've found

~ to create a look you love in your home ~
