the best orange.


Wonderful orange Nally canisters. I feel a bit greedy showing these because they are in great nick. The gold is still on the letter labels. All five canisters have lids, and they are the most wonderful orange in the whole world. They were a gift. Purchased before I showed the other canister gifts, I should add. Along with cupcakes, the night put me in tears. Literally.

Thank you doesn't quite cover it.


Were these in your house growing up? Did you keep the coloured handle panels towards the front or the back? I can't decide which way I like them better. I'm not sure that it matters because either way, I love them.

Are you feeling the vintage pantry love around here? I wanted to give the canisters and flour sack inspired fabrics photos their own home so I could find them quickly. flour, sugar, rice. is coming soon. Expect infrequent posts filled with eye candy.

  5. I have a Nally ware cookie box in the same orange! I'm thinking of putting on ebay soon, do you want me to give you a heads-up when I do?
