I WANT ONE, TOO!
So this is what I got....
It's been having a few touches* done to it here and there and now, it has a place in front of our outdoor fireplace.
The wheels are perfect and heavy.
Two large ones on the longer sides
and two smaller ones on the ends.
Old paint and stains from the nails.
And, while you're reading this post, please notice my vintage galvanized tool caddy that I got a couple of years ago. I love it. I just love, love a tool caddy....don't ask why--I don't know.
The name, JAKES, is on both sides of the cart.
I believe that this was a railroad cart and it
was manufactured in Nashville, Tennessee.
So now when we're outside, we prop our heels up
on our wonderful industrial cart.
How about coming over for a visit and
joining us when it gets a bit cooler? We're outside now, but I'd hate to invite you over when it's so hot here in Alabama.
AND ITS ALL BECAUSE I WAS AT THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME AND,
BECAUSE...
I SPOKE UP!!
***Several coats of Thompson's Water Seal were applied to the wood, the iron wheels were sealed so they wouldn't leave rust marks on our patio and the smaller wheels on the ends were extended so the cart sits PERFECTLY flat without tipping...Thank you Eddie!!

Hi Marsha. Thanks for contacting me. Your blog is beautiful and I look forward to catching up with it. I have not been posting and commenting the last few months as my husband passed away from cancer in May. But, I do lurk and visit blogs almost every day. Just doing it quietly right now. Prattville is on my list of towns in our state to visit, along with Selma, Montevallo, and several others. Maybe I'll get down there one day.
Just gorgeous! All of it! Thanks for sharing at Something to Talk About!
That's such a lucky find!! My husband and I have both had one of those on our wish list for a few years now. I want to find a real one like you did..not a reproduction. :)
Marsha,
Oh wow...what great timing!!! I really like how you are using this awesome cart...it looks wonderful in your pretty outdoor space. Thank you for sharing it at my Show and Share Party...it will be featured at the party this week.
Blessings,
Linda
