This is my White Wednesday photo this week. Yes, only one. I picked up this very cool vintage pie safe. It has a door that slides open and closed and holds our yummy baked goods. I have never seen one of these, have you?
Now you all know how much I love silver plated trays, sugar bowls, creamers....I use them for so many things in all of my rooms. They are just so versatile. We just got a 'lot' of them in and boy are they pretty. We have a showing coming up and we will be bringing them (unless you see something you can't live without, just let me know). Here are a few samples.
This one is engraved. This would make a great pencil holder on a desk.
I would put some Spring flowers in this one. Spring starts on Saturday and my garden is starting to show it.
This is a small butter/cheese set. But I would put chocolates in it and put it by my bed or in my guestroom for visitors.
Cotton ball holder
Q-tip, or makeup brush holder.
I love this one with the initial. A single rose is all it needs.
We also have some new vintage linens too for the show that I am washing right now. What we don't sell will be put on Maisonstgermain.com. Doing the shows is a lot of work for one day but it always looks so pretty when we are done setting up. This show we will be doing a Spring color theme so it should be pretty and cheerful.
On another note Nicole has started her own blog - see my side bar. Stop by won't you and show her some love:) I talk about how fabulous you all are and she wanted in on the fun.
I am on my way over to see your blogs now. Don't forget to visit Kathleen at Faded Charm for more White Wednesday.
'Till next time...

ReplyDeleteYour pie safe is awesome. I have know idea what was done with them or what to do with one now, but it is cool looking!!
ReplyDeleteI also like all of your silver plate. I love it also, as receptacles for all sorts of things, some of which you suggested.
Enjoy your corned beef tonight. We had ours Sunday.
Happy St. Paddy's Day! :-)

Okay, I am dying for the pie safe....I am thinking of all the things I would do with it... fold up my linen napkins and store them in them and set it on the counter...fold up my flour dish towels in there on the counter, use it as a spice rack - next to my vintage stove...hold all my French soaps next to my tub, a great place to stash all the vintage perfume bottles I wish I still had when I sold them in my store, a fruit bin for the counter, a make-up bin, a place for my nail polish, oh, yeah, I guess I could put pies in there, but that wouldn't be too practical since I like key lime pie frozen....hahahaha...love your set up...thanks for sharing.
