Repurposed Spoon Racks

Hello my Friend,

It has been a while! 

Life has been busy, but in the best way ever.

Our son just got married to the most wonderful girl !

We love her dearly!!!

We are so blessed and we are enjoying this special time.


After the wedding, my husband and I -

along with my parents, took a little vacation.

Of course that means some Antique shopping was involved.



I saw this idea in an antique store, it seemed so clever to me.

When a couple of wooden spoon racks came my way. 

I thought I would give the idea a try-

I decided to leave them as is- but they would be easy to paint!





I have this small collection of Vintage Hankies

- but you really can't see them very well in a neat stack!




I love the pretty colors, embroidery and lace.







Each rack holds 12 Hankies.

Just pinched the corner and pulled through the

spoon slot with no damage to the fabric.




and it worked beautifully!









I hung the racks on a bulletin board in my sewing room.



Have a great day!

Thank you for visiting!

  3. How charming. I'm about to go through my vintage stashes and list some in my etsy shop. Since I have a few spoon racks, I might display them like this for the first photo...LOVE IT! Thanks, Sandi
