I stumbled onto an estate sale this weekend. The house and all of it’s belongings were for sale. It was the home of a former home economics teacher at a local middle school. I was in heaven!

Vintage Estate Sale Loot
Here is the amazing vintage home ec recipe box. Each card is typed out and sorted by categories. The daughter of the homeowner/teacher said it was one of the class samples and a well loved kitchen item. I will treasure it!
