Wordless Wednesday—Essential for a “Well-Heeled” Kitchen

This thrift store find was once a store display. Now, the shoe is my spice rack. My kitchen has “sole.”

what a great idea!! Was it a spice rack before? Happy WW>

No, I’m not sure what it was. The place I found it six months ago was going to use it to display jewelry, but never did. When I went back a few weekends ago and found it buried under junk, I told them,”This is MINE!” And they let me buy it. :lol: ~skt

You’re so resourceful and it goes with the “eclectic” you!

I am afraid that this IS so “me.” It’s a silly place around here! ~skt

Rosemarie June 19, 2007 at 6:26 pm

You are on Shout Out #4 for the contest that will be posted tomorrow. Brilliant!

Thanks, Rosemarie. I’ll have to go see what it is!~skt

Wow – what a unique find! And even more unique new use for it – well done!
Happy WW – I played too.

Thanks, Lavender. Happy day to you, too.~skt

:mrgreen: This is me green with envy! I am insanely jealous of that spice rack…I mean…OMG!!!! A shoe? A High Heeled Shoe???

GREEN with envy! lol

Great WW!!!

Thanks, Karina! You gotta go shopping with ME:lol: I find good stuff. Problem is that my house is FULL! I have to get rid of things when I get new stuff in. You should have come to my garage sale :twisted: ~skt

Pann June 19, 2007 at 7:22 pm

That is so cool!!

Works really well in that space, too!

Fortunately it did! My first thought had been to put my jewelry on it, but then I remembered I have FIVE cats…I wouldn’t have had jewelry for very long :lol: ~skt

Well, this is pretty cool. I haven’t seen this type of spice rack before. I like it. Great WW post. I haven’t given up on the crochet, but it’s not working my friend. I need someone to show me, so I’m looking for a tutor. Have a happy WW. :)

I hope you n ever see another! Don’t give up on the crochet. If I have to fly to California and teach you, I will. That is, after I win the lottery :lol: ~skt

I’ve got a shoe loving buddy who needs one of these! Happy WW.

May never find another, Mz. Jackson! It was at the bottom of the junk heap.~skt

Wonderful idea! :grin:

Happy WW! :-)

Isabelle aka Tricotine

Thanks, Isabelle! I thought it was cool :cool: ~skt

Katya June 19, 2007 at 8:00 pm

Wow! What a terrific display! Must say, that was very resourceful on your part!
Happy WW!

I got lucky. I looked at it for several days before deciding I could use it. I wanted it to be somewhere that people would see it~skt

classy kitchen with a sole! :smile:
thanks for adding me to the blogroll, and I really do hope you’ll get all the squares before July 19th!

happy WW

I don’t have to get ALL the squares by then! We will be working on this for awhile, I ‘magine. All I need by the 19th of July is 39 squares from different people so we can put together the first afghan~skt

Linda June 19, 2007 at 8:45 pm

Quite creative! I bet it’s quite the conversation piece!

Yeah, I just have to show it off! I love it~skt

JHS June 19, 2007 at 8:48 pm

It’s cute, but I couldn’t stand it on my cupboard. It would take up too much room!

It just barely fits under my cupboards, but I had to have it, so there you go.~skt

Kellyology June 19, 2007 at 9:09 pm

That is awesome and really creative! Way to combine my two favorite loves…shoes and food!

Shoes & food are both good things to love! :lol: ~skt

qtpies7 June 19, 2007 at 9:38 pm

That is really cool and funky! I couldn’t pull it off, but I love it!


I’m weird enough to pull it off! :lol: ~skt

Carma Dutra June 19, 2007 at 9:42 pm

Wow high stepping spices! I love it just like everyone else does. :grin:

I just Had to have a wall clock in the shape of a real wrist watch. Funny thing is I think they are coming back. :???:

:grin: If we wait around long enough, everything comes back in style…even watch shaped clocks (given time, so to speak)~skt

Crazy Working Mom June 19, 2007 at 9:54 pm

Oh, now that is too cute! :)

I want one.

There’s a junk store in Dallas, but I know she doesn’t have another. You’ll just have to dig around~skt

Dana June 19, 2007 at 10:02 pm

That is a really cool spice rack.

Thanks, Dana. I like it pretty well.~skt

Amy June 19, 2007 at 10:12 pm

Very creative piece!

Thanks, Amy. I appreciate you stopping by~skt

Mark June 19, 2007 at 10:36 pm

It’s not wordless, but it’s a very cool spice rack.

Then comes the pun with “sole.”

I groaned and laughed at the same time.

Mark, I’m never wordless. It just isn’t part of my nature. Puns, now THEY are a part of my nature. I love the ones that make people groan. This one was a shoe-in for that possibility~skt

Lucy June 19, 2007 at 10:49 pm

Thats pretty cute…

Thanks, Lucy.~skt

Marcia June 19, 2007 at 10:52 pm

I am really jealous, I almost had the chair made as a high heel — it was actually comfortable. Not doing WW this week, but am almost finished with my blogroll “Square” for your list.

Growing momentum, great to see.

Yep, the momentum is good to see. I’ve seen those high heel chairs. I’d love one of those, too. I have a chair that is a hand….
Get me that blogroll square, lady.~skt

jenn in holland June 20, 2007 at 3:27 am
