Hammered Aluminum

I'm not sure if you know this about me, but I'm into just about everything vintage!

I love vintage things including:
Hammered Aluminum

While Aluminum is not very expensive (and you can usually find it at garage sales), I love it.
To me it is something that has history to it, but still very useful.

There are several antique pieces I have that don't get used everyday - 
because I would be scared something would happen to them! 

These pieces are usually inexpensive but still very functional. 
Maybe it is the highly practical side in me that loves hammered aluminum!

 
I already have a mini collection started.
Thanks to: my Mom, Michael, Aunts, and family friends!
These great people will pick me up a piece at a garage sale if it has the tulip pattern on it.
Which I love the tulip pattern!


I do have a mini collection - but I'm NOT a crazy collector! 
Being that I am practical, I usually only pick up pieces I intend on using.
Although, when a dealer throws in another piece for and extra 50 cents how can you say, No? haha


I just thought I'd share my love for Rodney Kent - Tulips and all things Hammered Aluminum! :)
