Love the tea-time teapot, red-handled "cake separator", vintage blue-checked apron and enamel pots!
Vintage pot holders, wood knife holder, and see that card with the happy homemaker on it? That is a product from the 40's called "Mend-Its". If you get a hole in one of your pots, you can use the two metal disks to plug it up! Now that's thrifty American ingenuity to make you proud! Hope you have a safe & happy Fourth of July!
Have a hankerin' for more vintage goodies? You can see more vintage items every Thursday at Colorado Lady's blog.
Mend-its what a funny concept!! Thanks for sharing!!!Have a blessed day, cher

ReplyDeleteOMG I remember mended pots, after WW2 there was a shortage of metal so old pots were mended. Wow!
