The one that got away

I got this lovely big storage jar at Trumpington car boot last week. The man I bought it from regaled me with a tale about how his father would put by all his small change in a big jar like this. I think it would take a very long time to fill this one up with pennies.

I bought it for the stall, but when I got back and showed off my purchases my Dad took an instant liking to it. He drills all the plates for our upcycled cake stands so of course we had to give it to him.

It does look beautiful in our kitchen. I even found some matching Tea and Coffee canisters in Hornsea's Fleur pattern yesterday, so I imagine these will be going the same way...
