Vintage Shopping Test # 17



 Hi Everyone
 Happy Wednesday
Are you ready for another
 vintage shopping test


Here are two similar metal hangers
One is a vintage metal hanger that was used for display
in a department store in the late 1930's
The other metal hanger is a brand new reproduction


The first  metal hanger is smaller in comparison
 has a rounded bottom
and a metal locker number at the top


The second wire hanger is taller and has a playful shape
almost looks like it is smiling
there is a small square bottom perfect for 
{yes hydrangeas}
they are just too beautiful not to share with you all...


Both metal hangers
 have a multitude of uses
we use them both around our home for storage
 and even to hang clothes on


Do you think you know which one is the vintage metal hanger
 and which one is the reproduction


If you guessed the tall hanger with the smile and square bottom
 you are right



The one on the left is a brand new reproduction
 the one on the right is the vintage treasure
How did you do
 did you spot the real vintage hanger
 or were you fooled by the new reproduction
Leave me a comment I would
{Love}
to know how you did
linking for Wow us Wednesday

  2. I picked the larger one since it looks like it was made by hand while the other one looks like its mass produced. They both are very lovely.

  6. Well, I thought it might be the one with the "smile" but then I didn't think the heart was part of the orignal. I always connect those with the 80's. Great pieces both of them- xo Diana

  7. The larger one looked like it had been 'well loved' for a looooooong time! Love all your sharing! I live in HOT, DRY, WINDY West Texas, and absolutely drool over your flowers! I had to use a shovel to break up the dirt clods in my flower beds AFTER I'd added tons of goodie to it!
    And.......how many have commented that your hubby looks like Tom Selleck? You are a blessed girl!
