Vintage Finds

Went to a warehouse sale last weekend,

and loved this box.....but wait!

 look at the inside... charts, wheel, stuff....

it is a 1955 Voltmeter....used to measure usage of electricity.

so cool. and one of my customners cmae in next day

and his Dad actually used to read meters with one.

 extra charts in the door....

and see the ink bottle at bottom right of door.

It even came with the original bottle of ink in a case, 

to fill this one with. (and still has ink!)

so fun!

more new finds....an old lantern....more to ocme on that.

and an unknown object on yellow stool in middle.

Found out it is a 'crimper' or 'fluter' from early 1900's.

(more on that to come on another post.)

 

and cranks. I love them! not sure what they are off of, 

but great decor (or towel holder) on a rustic wall.

Here is last find this post. (but more to come)

This great old wringer. 

I have never found one quite like it.

All for today.

thanks for visiting.

Trowels and New Treasures

Trowels.
Ever notice how many different kinds there are?
Metal ones with wood handles.
(see that very very old on on the top right?)
cooool!!

All metal trowels in bright colors.

And look at this old trowel.
Hand crafted I think. And big and heavy.
Must have been one big, strong man (or woman) who used this.

And here is my new treasure.
An old, but small wringer for a washer.

I finally found a bucket for it.
Not quite small enough, but it will do.
You know I am lovin' this.

Thanks for coming by.
Happy Tuesday blessings
