My Place and Yours-Kitchen
Whatever you love the most in or about your kitchen is the Theme this week chosen by Tracey and Nic My kitchen has been on this blog before my place yours-my collection or some of it anyway so I will put a few more glimpses of it here now.
I scored this Kitchen cupboard when a local Antique Shop was closing down. It was in the shop on consignment for $800 but the owner didn't want it back so I made an offer of.......$70 (all I had in my purse at the time) and she accepted it!!!!! It takes three men to lift it so maybe thats why she was happy to part with it??? On top are my Rolling pins (wooden and glass) and other kitchenalia. Some of my Chook collection and other bits and bobs.
My Mum found these bottles when she was moving and passed them on to me. In the background is my tea tin which I found at the local Op Shop ages ago. Looks great in my green and timber kitchen.
And on the floor is an old iron that is currently serving as the door stop. A great door stop but not too gentle on the toes if you happen to run in to it!!! Another thing I love in my kitchen is the polished Murray Pine floor boards. So easy to look after!!!!

Right place right time Marian. Yes I can see some (sorry lots of) things you have that I could fit in here somewhere.

Jackie, I love the cupboard. I have old furniture too. My mother says to get it fixed up, but I love all of its marks and 'wonkyness' (is there such a word!). Jenny
Nah leave it as it is, more character
What a beautiful leadlight cupboard you scored for $70! I really like your door stop, it's a classic! Thanks for stopping by my little blog.:)

I love that beautiful dresser: the leadlight windows, the shell handles, the little drop down part...oooh I love, love,love it.
I love that kitchen cupboard, and what a steal, I love how abundant it is, my sort of style :)
wow, what a fabulous find, I bet you did the happy dance on the way home!
thanks for popping by, as for the smarties, the kids don't ask for them because they just assume they are for smartie cookies..heheee, well until they get older & wiser.
Wow - what a score getting that gorgeous cabinet for $70!! Love it. Love that iron too :) I bought a similar one I came across in an antique shop for my mum a few years back for her birthday.
Good job you scored big time that cupboard is beautiful. Arn't you glad we don't have to iron with those things these days but who irons anyway (ok just a little bit, if I have to).
Oh wow what a great found this cupboard!!I love your door stop maybe you need padded sleepers:)?!Thanks for popping over too:)
