Vintage Thingies Thursday


Oooh! I just ran across this blog- Confessions of an Apron Queen and I see she does this thing called Vintage Thingies Thursday. Well, today being Thursday and all, I thought I should participate. It's as good a time as any to jump in, right?

Today, the Apron Queen herself shared some of her vintage Ransburg items. They are just lovely!! It just so happens that I, too, own something by Ransburg! I bought these adorable canisters at the thrift store on the Air Force Base where my husband is stationed a year ago this past April. I knew from the moment I saw them that they had to come home with me.

The set consists of only 3 canisters, so one must have either been damaged or misplaced. I did some research when I first bought them and I believe these to be Era II in the Kopper Kettle pattern. They don't really match my kitchen in this house but I still have them stuck on the counter anyhow!
