Recycled Hardware. Metals. Home and Garden. Imperfection Attracts.

This vintage bent colander with 7 stars is my favorite. Perfect for a kitchen display.  It still can do a full day's work. Good for photo displays.

This vintage Martex towel almost got donated until I came to my senses.

Gadgets with red bakelite handles. Those are keepers.

All the colors pop.

I'm hoping a food blogger finds this gem.

I can't remember where I bought these green hinges. A handyman's dream.

DIY. Perfect for a farmhouse redo project.

Light light lavender over iron. This was bought in a historic area store.

Not sure exactly what this salvaged piece is.

I could see this outside on a garden gate.
