Red

These are house numbers that hang in our dining room. They were from Pottery Barn, and are now on mega-sale, but apparently only if you want 6 or 9.


This is the Grocery Man. He used to hang in my grandparent's retro red and white kitchen. I inherited him (and the pencil!) later. He now lives in my kitchen by the back door.



This is a little hodge-podge of vintage items. The chair belongs to the 1950's table-and-chairs that I inherited from my grandparents. The rolling pin towel on the back of the chair was my grandma's, as were the two plaid towels stacked on the chair seat. The other red item on the back of the chair was my grandma's kitchen curtain. It is in really bad shape, and I'm not much of a seamstress so I haven't tried to repair it. I'm not really sure what I'll do with it, but I have to hang on to it. The white towel with the red stripe I picked up at an antique shop in New Harmony. I bought the red Pyrex container on ebay awhile back and the potholder and red plastic basket were also my grandma's. I was so excited to find the red basket. I have wanted to use it a few times and couldn't find it anywhere and thought it was lost forever. When I was searching for items for this picture, I found it in the cabinet above the fridge, inside a roasting pan. Welcome back little basket!
