I never considered the possibility that
this unit was one of two designed to stand together.
(A second one MIGHT have mirrored this one and stood to its left.)
I just BET that's the explanation...

This is how it looks this morning.
except for the Better Homes & Gardens (red & white checked)
and the Betty Crocker cookbooks.
Both of these were wedding gifts forty years ago!
Ah-hah! I didn't spot that piece at the back. The shelving already looks quite at home with your treasures.

Oh, now I see it. This piece is still a steal.
ReplyDeleteWhat IS it? A patch? I really can't tell. LOOKS FANTASTIC THOUGH!!!
ReplyDeleteHi my dear-how lovely and your collected pieces are so nice!! Hope you're well and having a good week xx
ReplyDelete$2.00??? WOW!!! I think "irregularities" just add character!!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat makes sense that perhaps it was one of two bookcases, Rebecca. Anyway, it looks nice! Susan p.s. By the way, thanks a lot for visiting and commenting on my blog.
ReplyDeleteLooks Fabulous!! And that does make sense that it had a pair but it looks great by itself and holds all your lovely treasures perfectly ~Love Heather
ReplyDeleteThe best part about decorating is filling up an empty shelf or wall or area with our chosen pretties. My sister also collects the white glass......from thrift stores. I don't see much of it and I can't tell for sure what is old or new.
ReplyDeleteYour shelf looks very pretty. And quiet. That's what I thought when I saw it. Quiet.
Whimsy it is...and I would never have noticed any flaw. You certainly made it a work of art with all your fun dishes and cookbooks.
ReplyDeleteLooks great... white + white.
