Hi guys~I hope you remember this fun stuff. Anyway this is what I did with them~
nothing but coolness~
I used the mail box front as a frame. I put my business card in it~the size was perfect! It will make a cool display:):)
Honestly I wish I had bought all of these ( I walked away from 2 more:(:( )
I do that if I can't think of a plan when I see something!!
Stenciled my favorite number on the front and put a bunch of old vintage labels in it for safe storage.
Just vision 6 vintage film reel canisters, all lined up in this vintage dish strainer,
that's my point "way cool" ~next time, for sure. I will buy all of them!!!
Gives me something to look for:):)

I love them both. My husband has a bank and a door made with the post office doors. I wonder if I can sneak away with the door. hmmmm Great inspiration Connie.
ReplyDeleteLove love love love what you did with these!!! WOW WOW WOW!!!! FABULOUS!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteooooooooo they are both great!!!
ReplyDeleteFab! I really love that film reel canister. And yay for number 5! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to use the first one as a frame. Love the large No. 5 on the film canister.
ReplyDeleteYou are the queen of repurposing, Connie!
ReplyDeletewow wee totally love...
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend..
Oh this is awesome! Love the reel case
ReplyDeleteA few years ago I came across a bin full of the post office doors at Scott Antique Market. Right on top was one that had the number 4404 on it. That was the last 4 numbers of my parents phone number, the number I grew up with. So of course I had to have it! I keep it on a stand in my family room. They made everything so pretty back then! I'm glad someone else loves them too and keeps them out of the landfill!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's always such a pleasure browsing through your blog! You have such amazing finds! Love the letter box front and the film cannister!!!!! (yes, you should have bought the lot!)
ReplyDeleteI love what you created with your finds :)

ReplyDeleteI appreciate your thriftiness (not buying all three when you had no "purpose" in mind! I know though
sometimes we regret it~
