I love the drawer that says "NO" (that's where I'd hide my candy bars) Vintage

Which is your favorite? What would you store in yours?
Love them all. I don't know what I'd store in them, but I've always wanted one! Love the one with the NO!

What an awesome way to use card catalogs! It's amazing what a fresh coat of paint cant do. I'd use one to organize my art supplies, the tiny drawer I use is practically filled up!
ReplyDeleteInspiring! I just saw one of these for sale at a consignment store. Too bad I don't have room in my house!

Wow, did you notice what the price was?
DeleteI've been trying to find one of these locally. I'd pay serious money to have one if it came down to it!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking the same thing! :)
DeleteI love that you use so many pics in each post, it provides a wide spectrum of ideas and thoughts.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I try to gather as many different ideas as I can for each post, that's exactly my goal, to show a wide range of ideas

3rd picture down - the aqua unit with larger drawers: I would die if I could find this for pattern storage in my sewing studio. I already have commercial pattern drawers - but to find old wooden ones...Love!
ReplyDeleteI live in Boise Idaho and went to an indoor flea market a month or so ago and there was a vendor there who had 2 or 3 of them. I think there was a smaller one with perhaps 12 or 16 drawers for about $80, but that is a rough estimate from my memory. This event will happen again the weekend of March 24 and I plan to go back and see that vendor again.
