Today is Metomorphosis Monday being hosted by Between Naps on the Porch and I'm getting a late start.My big find of the week was this bread box that I found at the good will for $5.75. With a can of spray paint and a little elbow grease I was able to turn this old bread box into a jewel for my kitchen.
I decided to keep the role top part the wood grain because it didn't have any paint spills on it like the rest of the box before I painted it red. Don't you think it looks cute between my canisters?

It IS very cute. Now if Den were to see this he would say, "I wish I knew the history behind that bread box." He gets me thinking that way too. I wonder whose kitchen it was in, and how many years ago it was, and what kind of a life those people lived.
i think your bread box looks wonderful and it certainly does look great with your cannisters.

I DIG IT!
That is so cute painted red. I like the fact that you can hide things in there and close the door, too. Linda
very cute! I can't wait for spring for garage sales to start. I miss finding hidden treasures like these!
