Ironstone & Tarnished Spoons Displays

I told you last month about my super chippy, antique door that I took apart and have been creating things with the parts.

I put some sealer on this panel from the door, hoping to preserve as much of the chippy paint that is left, then added hangers to the backs of some ironstone bowls and a platter to hang on it.  I love the simple, farmhouse look of the old wood and crazed ironstone together.
The piece above it is salvage from an antique accent table.
You'll see another part from that accent table when I show you the whole kitchen remodel - hopefully soon.
I also wanted to create a way to display my pretty, tarnished silver spoons, so I used E6000 to mount them to a piece of wood that was leftover from our bathroom remodel.  If you recall, the wood in our bathroom came from a historic courthouse that was demolished.  The other side of the wood is turquoise, so I used the rough, unfinished side to mount the spoons.
The old wood is a perfect backdrop for the tarnished spoons. I had just enough spoons to fill the board.
On Friday, I'll show you another little project I finished for my kitchen as well.

I'll give you a little hint what it is...I think you'll "see" why I love it.
Anyone want to guess?

Blessings,
Angie
