What does Suzanne have today? I wonder? I think I'll go check out all of the other blogs!!!!
Today I want to show you all a vintage metal milk carrier I bought awhile back. I'm still wanting to buy the glass milk bottles for it too.
I have decided just to use some my glass pieces I have already for now.
I have an old bottle, some small vases, an old oil lamp and and a glass grater of some sort. The owner of the shop said it was for cheese or nuts. I don't think he was sure. It has a fantastic red lid which matches the red handle on the carrier. The bottom of the jar says "Federal Tool Corp. Chicago".
I added some little Valentine red picks to spice it up for Valentines season.

I love milk bottles and carriers, and yours is a great find!

I like the carrier with the things you have in it now.
Hi Ann, Thanks for the visit to my little cottage, I remember a carrier on my front porch when I was little.....filled with milk. I would love to have one, it would be a vinrage treasure for sure.
I have seen those in many vintage malls. At least you are making good use of yours.
I just saw a clever idea for one of these in the Pottery Barn catalog-they used one as a chandelier with light in the bottles!
I love that metal carrier, and it looks great with all your goodies! How fun. I really like your new blog look too! So cute!! Have a great weekend and happy VTT!
It definitely looks like some sort of carrier. The red handle is great. I love anything red.
I've always wanted a milk bottle carrier just like yours! I picked up an old rusty one last year, and I want to put old blue Ball jars in it, along with a bunch of flowers this summer. Yours looks really cute!
Happy REDnesday!

Your carrier looks great. Mine is all bent out of shape.
Hi Ann, I can't believe you don't have this stamp set! So glad I used it and I can't wait to see what you do with him! This is so you! Hope you are staying nice and warm!
i LOVE your milk bottle carrier. I wish I had one, because I have lots of the milk bottles.
Love your milk bottle carrier. I passed one up at the GW once, and regretted it ever since.
