This little treasure was hiding out in my grandma's basement being used as a cat food locker when I whisked it away to Iowa.
For some reason, I never remember seeing this at Grandma's, though I am sure it had long been sitting in the same place at the bottom of the basement stairs.
I am certainly glad that it caught my eye and that the family agreed to let me have it.
It seems old, and if I took a little closer look, I am certain I could find a date on one of the old newspapers lining the inside.
So the question is, how should I restore this? I need some ideas so I don't mess it up, as I want this to have a prominent place in all of my kitchens from here on out.
What a find! Hi Kier, I am a friend of Maddie's in Stockholm. She sent me your blog, as I am also a blogger. :-) Love your blog! My husband is a vegetarian and I am mostly a vegetarian so it is always fun to find new resources for meals etc.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't do much to this pie safe. Clean it up and maybe some light sanding. It is gorgeous as is!
