Rednesday...again~





I don't want to offend anyone, but I collect Black Americana and it's all over my kitchen. I have been collecting it for at least 30 years. I have so much of it that some of it is in storage. Just little bits of red here and there





My kitchen china cabinet filled to the brim with it, including vintage linen in the drawers which I will show you all later


little buggies on the window pane


and a gift to me from someone who thinks they know me...HA!

  2. You really do have a nice collection of the Black Americana look. I like them and you have them displayed very well. I have some very old ones. They are very hard to find and very costly. Hang on to them.

  3. Hi Bunny, I was just thinking I haven't seen a post from you in a while. You've got a great collection going, I heard Whoopi Goldberg collects these as well.

  5. Love your Black Americana. I don't think I've seen so much in one place before. When I came to Kuwait, I had a mammy doll I bought at a craft sho -- it was made from a barrel and was huge! When I decided to do away with the country look, I gave her to a friend and my husband freaked about that. Who knew he liked the thing --but it really was too big for my kitchen.

    Looks like Vegas was a worldwide whirlwind trip all in one place. Fun!

    Best wishes, Tammy

  14. I love your collection. I have never seen any of the pieces anywhere. I really like the way you have displayed them. The little lady with the rolling pin is my favorite. Love the sarcasm sign too. Hugs

  15. I love your collection. It's too bad we have to be so PC that we can't just collect the things that bring joy. I just posted a black art valentine on my Rednesday post. Don't see those too often, so I had to buy it!
