Some Antiques



Here is a picture I took with my cell phone because the batteries are dead in my camera. Its not the best picture but I wanted a picture of the old pie safe on my blog. It was built with square nails so it dates to the 1800's. This Pie Safe was actually found in an old abandoned house and the owner did not want it. It has been in a flood as the top is warped and you can see a water line about midway up. I wish the old thing could talk. What a neat story it would tell us.



The high chair I bought in Panama City, Florida but was told it came from Kentucky. Thats all I know about it. The Buffet came from Sheridan Wyoming and has been a wonderful piece and has such a nice beveled mirror on the back.

  1. Good Morning!
    It's always good to see a fellow Kansan on here. I see you are new to the blog world too...I just started in February. I warn you...it's addicting if you haven't already figured that one out! I LOVE your pie safe and buffet. You've taken some wonderful pictures of your area...we travel up that way on our way to British Columbia although the last couple of years we've flown. Before moving here I thought Kansas looked the same all over...flat...now I know there are many different topographies here which are beautiful in their own right. Thanks for sharing with us some of your treasures and in your earlier post your beautiful Kansas scenery. I hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend. Maura :)
