Look what the postman brought me today!
It’s apparently a genuine 50s enamel breadbin found in some warehouse in Holland. Or that was the Ebay seller’s story anyway. Actually the condition bears this out – its definitely vintage and is in pretty much mint condition, with the manufacturer’s sticker on the lid.
And it goes very nicely with my butter dish (china made to look like vintage tupperware, I’m definitely going to get some of those in the shop) and my very favourite Le Creuset spatulas. The colour scheme for the downstairs kitchen is now pretty much a done deal, I would say.

I love those colors. I am so jealous of that bin!

Wow I love that breadbin. It looks like a petty cash tin.

The breadbin is great, and I also really like the butter keeper. Those greens will look lovely as a theme for your kitchen

Feeling traumatisd that my kitchen decor doesn’t match my spatulas…..
Am liking the bread bin though – were bread loaves and rolls the same size in the 50s?
