Rustic and Elegant

Hi Everyone
 Happy Tuesday
When you are decorating your home with vintage treasures

~Have Fun and Mix it up~

Don't let what something was originally used for
stop you 
from using it in a new way
This vintage wire basket is the perfect example

When I found it covered with dirt and oil it did not look  pretty or useful
But ...
mixing rustic industrial with beautiful fine china
and  gorgeous  mother of pearl handled knives
even hearts
is fun

re~purposed and pretty

~rustic and elegant~
This wire basket is a keeper!!!

With a little cleaning it is a new favorite treasure
So many people say , I never thought of that !!!!
Its fun to think out of the box
you can do it too
