Rednesday today!



Several years ago I bought this big gorgeous old red transferware tureen~~on the cheap for 50 cents!


It had a large crack on one side and both handles missing!  So~~don't care.  Loved it's potential~~I've even used it as a planter.  Today, it's just holding some flour sack towels and my red striped ones from the kitchen.



I'm going to these parties to mingle~~please join me:

  1. I love that it still looks gorgeous with your towels in it, all for 50 cents, and if you didn't tell me it had a large crack and missing handles, from your photo I could never, ever tell! Happy New Year to you. xo
