Does anyone have kitchen kitsch?
I love the "Antique Road Show" when people bring out stuff they have in the kitchen.
I have some pics of an avocado serving set that I love.
It belonged to my mom-it's a giant avocado with a spoon/ladle and two small avocado salt and pepper shakers.
It's put away-I'll post the pics when I find them....
I know people do collect stuff like that and was wondering what is out there!
My avocado, right before I put it away!
Oh, gosh, you've all seen my hot chocolate pot ... I've got stuff in the basement you'd probably love!
I have my Grandma's Cow Cookie Jar. I will have to take a photo and post it. It has to be 80+ years old. It is up on a shelf and probably very dusty. :)
Please! cookie jars ROCK!Quote:

The other set was the ceramic 'corn' stuff. I remember a butter dish that had the shape of an ear of corn-it was very unique and novel.
I think we can look at a pictures of a chocolate pot again?:D
Oh I wish I still had the cast iron frying pan light that was my dad's. It had a chicken and an egg painted in the frying pan w/a light and lamp shade attached to the top. He had it when I was a little girl and it hung in our kitchen for years. It was passed to me when my (then) husband and I were renovating the old farm house. However, when we divorced, he sold it w/out telling me. It's well over 60 years old. Talk about kitsch!
I know you have something else KITSCH.....Come on.....show us!Quote:

Finally got the cookie jar down and photographed it for you Richard. Sorry it took me so long. I had to wait until somebody tall could get it down for me. :p
How perfect that she has a cat sitting on her back. And then some pics of the salt, pepper shakers, creamer and sugar. These were my Grammy Sweeley's. She passed away when I was only about 11 years old.
The cookie jar just has 3 initials on the bottom, almost like someone had made it in a ceramics class. The other say "Japan" on them.
I fricking love it......Quote:
