We are...

not ready for retirement!

That's what a couple of very old,
plain,
somehow beat up to perfection
enamel bowls told us when we walked by...

And you know what?
They were right!




What are antiques whispering in your ear today?

Isn't enamelware one of the best finds? And I totally agree - the chippier the better! I just blogged about some of my enamelware today too! http://northerncottage.blogspot.com/2010/02/above-cabinets-or-not.html
