ARCHITECTUAL SALVAGE
Today we begin again with a new round for ABC Wednesday. I'm going to share one of my very favorite A words.
Architectual Salvage is a passion of mine and love to collect pieces of interest for our home. Many converstions begin with a peek at one of my items I've collected.
There are many Architectual Salvage stores and shops across the county and If I spy one on a trip, I will certainly stop.
Here's a few of small pieces I have.
Gym basket with glass door knobs, horseshoes and type sets for vintage printers cabinet.
Coupling for vintage firehose.
Husband is a retired Paramedic/Firefighter.
This is my favorite items.
My BIL salvaged this for me years ago. It is a vintage printers cabinet. Right now it is filled with vintage linens.
So happy to participate in the new year for ABC Wednesday @http://abcwednesday-mrsnesbitt.blogspot.com
Thank you Roger for taking on this new ADVENTURE.

Wow, these are AWESOME! I especially love the glass knobs and wish I could have that type on my doors.

That cabinet looks to be a great way to store your linens. It would also do nicely for various paper products and craft items that are always looking for a home at my workspace. :)
ReplyDeleteLove seeing things re-purposed♫♪

ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to have a cabinet like that! My background is in printing, so it's a natural thing. I do have not printers' blocks of engraved photos from a defunct newspaper.
ReplyDeleteAwesome antiques.

That cabinet is great! Always nice to see such interesting items being re-purposed rather than simply thrown out as trash.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post full of my favorite sorts of things,the interesting and the odd. Your Printers drawers are magnificent! I have been watching for something like this for a few years to store art prints. Mine is out there I just know it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and clever subject for "A!" I love the whole concept of architectural salvage, and you've found some delightful treasures. Those glass knobs are a great find, and I love your printer's cabinet! (I have two vintage printer's drawers that are displayed on the wall with miniatures in them, so I love seeing what an entire cabinet looks like ~ and how perfect for storing your vintage linens!)
ReplyDeleteCalling by as a first time participant in ABC Wednesday, to thankyou for your support. Clever choice for A, these places are I agree fascinating.
ReplyDeleteThis is so so exciting to see. Love what you have collected.
ReplyDeleteI keep an eye out for things like that too. I have a couple of glass doorknobs.
Love your vintage linen drawers.
I do like that printers cabinet - so many drawers for hiding things in!
ReplyDeleteOh, great finds! And an interesting post!
ReplyDeleteHi, Ann...still playing catch up on my reading, since returning from our extended vacation last week...I would KILL for that printers cabinet...actually, I love everything you showed here. Happy Thursday - thanks for stopping by...off to read some more here.
ReplyDeleteI love things like this. Only wish I had never thrown anything away - what goes around comes around don't you think?
