Vintage Feature – The Tools Behind Many Family Memories

Vintage Kitchen Tools

As I worked on photos this week, this arrangement of our vintage kitchen tools finally materialized. Before I snapped this picture I had tried many different looks – taking things out, putting things back in, changing the background – and, after I had picked up each utensil several times, I paused to reflect upon each one and the women who once used them to create meals for their family.

Then I had that ah-ha moment – these simple kitchen tools, along with their modern-day replacements, are behind many of the family traditions we love. Their mashing, beating, and rolling produced delicious meals indeed, but even more importantly, they brought us lasting memories of laughter, fun, and love.

Here’s our salute to vintage kitchen tools and the memories they helped create at the family dinner table. Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving.
