Finds


While my husband and I were out and about over the weekend, I stumbled across this fabulous find.  A HUGE bread box.  The very best part was the price---three dollars!!  Can you believe it??  I know, I think they mispriced the item.  I've seen less desirable bread boxes for $20.


I washed it with just dish detergent and let it air dry.  So of course I'm not going to keep bread in it, that's just silly.  I thought it would make an excellent candy box.  (candy is a staple in this house, just one piece with put a smile on anyone's face).


Once I brought it home, I then had to think of where to put it in the kitchen because it really is large.  I rearranged the cook book nook to make room for the box.  Lovely!

What have you found on your outings?

  2. Very cool. They used to be everywhere growing up and now it's difficult to find even a decent one. You succeeded.

  3. It's beautiful, and what a steal! I think your use is much better than just using it for bread.

  11. You got a deal! I've always wanted one of these... thought it would be cute with spices in it. Love the way you repurposed it into the candy box!
