a post from the past and an update ...
Being the farm girl that I am ...
I love carts
always have
always will
it must be the container gene in me ...
organize and condense
and keep things tidy ... blah blah blah
truth be told, if I had a large enough kitchen
it would resemble this creative living space ...
I know, that you know I'm leading up to something here, right?
You're right!
hang on...
oh, and if I could re-do my wedding
you'd be walking up to this
venue for your piece of cake
when my daughters were small
this was their favorite cart ...
I've kept it all these years!
OF COURSE
I'm saving the best for last!
Today I was out and about
snooping for treasures for the May 2012
SHOP THE SHED...
lo and behold ...
THIS
was right inside the door
at the first stop I made.
adorable dirty white rubber tires ...
one center handle with original gripper
metal lined basket ...
17 x 38
(to the top of the handle)
and oooooodles of French charm, I know right?
IF
it makes it to
SHOP THE SHED
you'll be able to see for yourself ...
or
I may be posting this
this fall
or I may be fostering it for a while.
tell me now,
would you have bought this?
your thoughts please
~update~
this cart sold immediately almost
a year ago ...
good news is, I found another one
you can see it here ...

I gave you a little (third) shout out today!
(I wondered where that 50 yard line marker went!)
Your assortment at second shout out is brilliant.

Love, love them all.
so jealous :)
Give me wheels! I love anything on wheels! Carts are impossible to resist. Love seeing so many sweet ones in one place. Can't believe you found another basket cart like this. So fun!

Great stuff.. we are heading out to TN on Sunday, Vacation in mind.. but you know we will have to stop
and snoop around some Vintage places.. finds just
waiting to be discovered.
Love the wicker cart.. and my girls had a shopping
cart just like that, but their favorite was a doll buggy- just load it up and stroll away the hours.

I love these pictures. They are fantastic!! I love all the carts.

Oh gosh, these are fantastic. I guess I'm not too far off the mark when I tie a basket to an old luggage cart for shopping the farmer's market?
(I'm new here, and I love your style!)

Love them all...
Lucky! I have never found one! Ok well I have on line but soooo expensive :(
I attended a workshop many years ago where Virginia Scharff postulated
that women love containers because we are containers. Makes sense to me
and I have worked to prove that
theory ever since! Her latest book "Women Jefferson Loved" is wonderful.
