~From The Homestead~

A visit to my Grandmas shop in Elk Grove, Ca. A cute little place called From The Homestead. My Grandparents love Antiques and travel a few times a year to find great treasures. I decided to pick a color theme of red and show you a few things they have. I love all the old time kitchen ware!
Heres some classic white jars with red lids
I thought this clock was really cute and the match holder
I really like the red stand, love how it holds the rolling pins on the side. You could probably put cook books there as well. Cute little salt and pepper shakers too.
Rolling Pins
She hung a tin tray and used it for magnets. Cute idea for any room!
Jars and Misc. stuff. Just a small preview!

  1. I love the tin tray with the magnets. I think I may try that in my classroom. I have some cool magnets but nowhere to hang them.

  4. Love your Grans shop... I love red in a kitchen - it's so cheerful.. I started to collect same.. Does she have a bread bin for sale that she could post to Ireland??!! Tall order I know. Where do you make time to do all you do?.. I'm really impressed.. but I am just a tad older (quite a lot and energy levels not what they used to be!) I have a 29 yr old son in Australia (Sydney)
