Enamelware Accents in Your Primitive Decor

Enamelware is an affordable alternative for primitive decor accents. Enamelware pitchers, such as my friend Melissa's recent flea market find (Under $2) make great vases and Utensil catch-alls.

Often, you can find enamelware at very affordable prices. Look for pieces that are not dented or heavily damaged by have a worn area(s) to the enamel surface. These flaws sometimes accentuate their primitive look or they often can be easily hidden with paint, decals, or just facing the flaw to the wall.

Enamelware bowls, bedpans, slop jars and others, serve as wonderful planters for indoors and outdoor, too! Just be certain that if you do not want to put drainage holes in the piece, that you put plenty of stones on bottom for drainage before adding soil.
