DIY Holiday Greens & Mistletoe Galvanized Buckets

DIY Holiday Greens and Mistletoe Galvanized Stenciled Buckets

There's nothing I love more than a thrifty DIY home decor knock-off. And this one has to be one of my all time favorites!  Galvanized metal buckets have been on my list of faves for a long time now. I've been known to dabble in stenciling them as a way to add character and vintage charm. Today I wanted to show you a new take on the idea.

Vintage Sugar

January 28, 2011

Gimmee some of that vintage.....sugar?  Well, not exactly.  Just take a look and you'll see what I mean.


Any guesses?
This is a vintage galvanized maple syrup collection bucket I happily came across at a local antiques barn this past week.   So ~ syrup....sugar, get it now?
I was thrilled to find it.  It was exactly what I was looking for!

Can you guess why I wanted it?

I was intrigued by the label on it.

I guess some people might use it as a flower vase.  Or a storage bin of some kind.  Or maybe just as a decoration in and of itself.  But me?  Well......ssshhhhh, please don't tell anyone.....I'll be using it as a trash basket in our powder room!  The size and style couldn't be more perfect, and I really do like using something vintage in an unexpected, repurposed way. It's a win-win.

Hope you're all staying warm and dry.  Have a great weekend!
