Copper Hunting

On Saturday, Charlie and I went to a yard sale, flea market and a farmers market looking for some copper pieces.  My hunting paid off because I found a few pieces.

I found a coffee and tea canister, jam holder with a spoon, a pot and a cooper fruit mold pictured below.

And that was not my only find.  I brought home a drop leaf side table, a vintage wood shoe form and a Demijohn.

I have a demijohn already but not one with a basket.  I love this one!  As I write this, I’ve already found a place for it.

Now that I have found a few copper pieces, I can finish my fall decorating in the kitchen.  My rooster mold that I’ve had for awhile will now have some copper company.

  Thanks for stopping by and check back tomorrow as you will see how I used some of my finds in the Debbie Doo’s Magazine Copy Cat challenge

  3. My Mom had a warm kitchen with tons of copper. I kept a couple of pieces. She had the canisters you picked up. Love the little drop leaf table and the dough bowl!

  6. Great finds, Gail. I saw a fruit mold just like yours yesterday, but did not buy it. Love the demijohn, of course.

  9. Those are some nice finds! Copper looks very impressive around the house, don't you think? The metal ensures its longevity, and the color has a very classy style that's worthy of praise.
