Bread Boxes!

I'm very behind on my blogging, but overloaded on things that I love!  Having just moved houses and free to decorate & collect completely to my own tastes, I've been thrifting, Kijiji-ing up-cycling, and combing Etsy feverishly.  One thing I wish I had room for in my new funky, but sadly counter space challenged kitchen is a great, Retro bread box.  Here are a few I've been drooling over:

My current favourite colour, turquoise, in a very deco inspired, mid century plastic.  This amazingly well preserved bread box is $18 from Atomic Katz


In case you weren't sure what this lovely example of a Mid Century Mod, Danish inspired design box was for, it's conveniently labelled.  Love the lower case letters.  Available from Zen Hen for $34. 
This is so 70's Retro-cute, in the ever-popular avacado green, featuring simple kitchen item decal.  It even has a handy extra interior shelf.  $17 from Tag Sale Finds.

Always cheerfully nostalgic,  cherry printed, yellow bread box has two compartments and is attributed to the 1940's.  Thinking this would make one handy storage solution in any quaint kitchen or home office.  From Random Retro, $54. I love their tagline, it says it all; "Retro: it's not just a style, it's a LIFESTYLE" -live what you love!
