The other day while at
an antique shop I spotted it!
The most wonderful galvanized container…..ever!
I knew the minute I saw it
exactly what I would use it for.
Mr. Handyman on
the other hand was a little skeptical.
I was able to persuade him
that it was just what we needed to hold my
ever growing cane collection.

It has wonderful ring handles
on the sides…….

I’m not sure what the original
intended use was
but it serves my purpose well.

Apparently I have a cane collection too. I didn't mean to start one, didn't really want one, and can't say it's my favorite collection, more like I tolerate it. People just kept giving me canes and I'd see them for a song at garage sales, and well at least the umbrella stand has something in it. I'm gonna look around for an interesting old bin, at least then I'd like the bin.

That is a fabulous find Des!!
That is pretty Des!! You have quite the collection of antique canes, love it!
Wonderful find and your cane collection looks great in it.
Have a great day
I love anything galvanized! That is a great piece. I have been in the antiques business for over 20 years and I have never seen this and have no idea what it is. I hope someone will identify it.
What a great find Des and it looks great holding your collection of canes! Hope you are enjoying your day, Gail
Des: Right choice!! It is just looking perfect holding your cane collection..Happy Wednesday..Judy
I really love it! You really do have a large cane collection. I think it's the perfect holder for them. I've been eyeing a galvanized tub for a while to hold firewood on my fireplace hearth. It's one of those things that I keep thinking about even though I don't really need it right now. Ha! Ya just gotta grab stuff when you find them though.
Beautiful, whimsical and elegant....love it!
I just found your blog thru another favorite blog---love, love your style and how you think! I'm off to see more.
I LOVE that Des! Such a good find, and PERFECT juxtaposition of that galvanized pale and the warm wood of your cane collection.
LOVE ... LOVE ... LOVE!
We gals just KNOW when something is right. They don't. I love it!

It's perfect for holding your cane collection, Des! It also happens to look great in that corner, too!
Looks great with your canes. Good eye!
Your galvanized container is fabulous!! Perfect for your old canes. I just love it.

Hi Des,
What an incrediblely perfect find!
I love the fresh, eclectic mix the galvanized container adds to the room, and the canes are amazing! How many do you have and what's the criteria that makes you choose one over another?
Love to have you link, too.
Hugs,
Patti
What a great find!! And you found such an awesome use for it! It's perfect!
It looks like it was made for your home, to sit in that exact pot and hold those beautiful canes! Great find!

Looks lovely to me
and a little vintage is always a welcome addition to a beautiful home.
That looks absolutely PERFECT in that corner - and the collection it is holding - totally made for it.
WELL DONE!!!!
That is fabulous! I would have grabbed that one up also. Not that I have a cane collection or anything, but the shape is wonderful!
Look at the shape on that fabulous treasure. I love it and would have bought it in an instant and figured out what to do with it later. Already following on GFC and just followed thru Linky too:-)
Thanks for sharing.
Perfect!! You have such awesome style and a great eye for treasures. I love reading your blog!!
You are finding some cool stuff.Love those canes in it too!
