I thought that while I was at it, I would freshen up the kitchen a little.... |
I repurposed the vintage bread holder.... |
It now holds coffee cups for the "coffee bar" I also added some black board stick on's to the silver tray in the pic on the right. |
I changed out the burner covers...yes, I still like burner covers! |
Remember these ceramic pie holders? I still have the bottoms, but decided to repurpose the tops as burner covers. |
In the past, I have used silver lids and white enamel pot lids as burner covers. |
I bought this coffee pot at the auction...not sure if all these pieces go together or if they have been "married" but I thought it looked cool .... |
Let me know if any of you have ever seen anything like this before. |
I got my play stove for $15 and the coffee thingy was $2.50. |
I am done with the Halloween decorating and am just itching to decorate a tree or something!

So very cute! What a great find, TFS!
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious little stove. I wish I had such a cutie when I was a kid. Of course I would have played with it and destroyed. Like my Cinderella doll. I still miss her. Have a beautiful day.....Candy
ReplyDeleteHi Penny, love the little pink stove! My Daddy worked for Sears and Roebuck, eons ago, and I had the yellow stove and refrigerator, all kinds of COOL toys, now long gone. Wish so badly my Mom or I had kept some of those NOW "vintage" toys ;-) Thanks for bringing back such a sweet memory!
ReplyDeleteOh, I just love that little stove!! You are one very clever decorator!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little stove. It is just precious. I love it- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteThe stove is sweet, and to think it is still working. I can wait a while longer to decorate for Christmas, no itching here. :-)
ReplyDeleteIf I was a little girl, I would want to live at your house! Every inch of it is dreamy! Do you have grandchildren that come to visit and enjoy all your enchanted treasures?!
ReplyDeleteSo, so sweet, precious and special!
ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet treasure to have found!! I love all your beautiful displays in your kitchen so "Sweet" and just darling!! I am so envious of all your counter space that you have for display. I have very little counter space in my small kitchen and that is why we had the microwave counter bar built years ago so we could have more room. You have such a lovely Kitchen!!
I am feeling a bit burned out after the Remodel and the Tea. I truly can not wait until i am retired and don't have to plan everything around working....
Hugs,
Deb
I love that little stove! and your kitchen! You must love spending time in there.
ReplyDeleteDarling little stove. Your kitchen is gorgeous. Great idea for the burner covers.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Ohhhh....the pink vintage stove is so lovely!!! Your kitchen is like a beautiful shop. I adore your idea for the burner covers and for the bread holder
ReplyDeleteKisses

That stove is SO cute! Great vignette of it too. Love the cupcake under the cloche, how cute!
ReplyDeleteYour little pink stove is just adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou find the most amazing things. Love your little stove. Thanks tons for linking to Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteThat little stove is just adorable. And I love how you found a new way to use the bread box, very clever and isn't it great when you can use something vintage in a practical way? I hope you'll share this with my readers at my We Call It Olde Link-Up, a new party started this morning and goes til Saturday. Join us! -Dawn @ We Call It Junkin.com
ReplyDeleteWhat fun it is to find special treasures, and it looks like you found all the right places for yours.
ReplyDeleteYour little stove looks just perfect there, it's so cute!!
ReplyDeleteThe percolator was a steal at $2.50! I have not seen one exactly like that before but I am going to venture a guess as to how it works (based on how one of mine works). I think it might actually come apart in five pieces with that cup on the bottom of the top receptacle and the lid being the fourth and fifth pieces. In that little cup you would pack in coffee then put it back in place. The bottom most part looks as if that is a kettle and I'm wondering if perhaps the lid fits on it as well? If so, I would imagine that the kettle and lid are to heat the water, and while the kettle is boiling, the other 3 pieces are stacked accordingly (top receptable, cup w/coffee grounds, and middle receptacle.) After it has come to a boil, you would pour the water into the top receptacle, replace the lid on the top, and restack. I can't tell if there are perforations on the bottoms of the receptacles or not. Those holes would be where the coffee drains into the next basin. This may all be completely wrong but like I said, based on ones I have, that's pretty much how it goes. Hope that helps. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat is a great little stove. No, I am not read for Christmas and probably want be this time in December.
ReplyDeleteAdorable stove and what a charming kitchen!! Happy VTT
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little stove and I like your bread box coffee center. I can't wait to start decorating for Christmas. It's my favourite holiday. Thanks for sharing at my HOME.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sandi
Such a lovely little stove!
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling little stove!! Oh my, I had a fond memory come to mind when I saw the top of that stove...the metal piece...I wonder if I had one like that??? Seems in the deep dark recesses of my memory...hmmmm...
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE that pink beauty!!!
And the pie tops for the stove top burners!!! What a genius!! You are incredible!! LOVE your kitchen and you for sharing such goodies with us!
Blessings,
Doni

ReplyDeleteBig Texas Hugs,

Oh my gosh Penny, that stove is to die for! Little lady is just so pretty in pink. I have seen play stoves at antique stores and they want a pretty penny for them. Ha-ha, a pretty penny, that's you! The coffee pot is really fun and so are the pie toppers for stove covers. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
ReplyDeletehugs,

ReplyDeleteThat is a sweet sweet stove! I think I had one very similar when I was a little girl. Your kitchen is just scrumptious! I love all your feminine details, and especially your chandelier! I also love your tea cups displayed that way. So fab!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Terri

ReplyDeleteI just loved stopping by today and the little stove brought back so many memories for me. What a wonderful find and a good price I might add. Your kitchen looks lovely, and If I had to pick a favourite it would be so hard but for me the bread box is a sure winner. I love your decorating and hope to come by again to see tons of pictures of the lake.
