I needed some vintage saucepans for the shabby house and after searching the world for them and seeing how much they cost I decided I should have a go at painting some myself. I had a rummage around and was surprised to find I had so many pots. These were all originally painted speckled dark blue.
Here they are in the shabby kitchen cupboard. I guess I should start thinking about some food to go on the other shelf.
I also painted those metal mini kitchen utensils and I made another rack like the one Sylvia made me because it needed to be a bit smaller once I had hung the plate rack up. And that little pink jug is the tiniest one I've made so far.
As you can see I haven't got tired of making rusty things yet!

Hey I have the same speckled blue pots and pans too and intended to paint them as well. Your "old" wares are looking great and everytime I see the black button studs, they always make me think of your stove. :) So brilliant!
ReplyDeleteWell done you!! I've painted plates and bowls that were originally that speckly stuff but hadn't thought of the pots. Great thing about the speckleware is that it's comparitively inexpensive.
ReplyDeleteLove what you do with your things :)
ReplyDeleteYou'll never end to surprise me! I suppose you are one of the most inventive chap I've ever met. Brilliant !!!! Keep going...and showing! Hugs Rosanna
ReplyDeleteI MA sure that much better now with the pans. Looks perfect in your house.
ReplyDeleteThe tiny pink jug is really cute ;)
