A Wall of Cooking Utensils

While visiting with an ex-neighbor in her new home, she had to give me a tour of the place. The one room that was the most intriguing to me was her kitchen. Instead of having her manual cooking utensils in a drawer or in a cute container on the kitchen counter, she'd devoted a bare wall to her collection.

With little white paneling nails, just every so often, while at the same time, being apart only 5-6 inches at the most. She'd hung each of the utensils on the nails, some of the utensils at an angle in one direction or another. It sure made it to be a conversation piece, that's for sure, as some of her utensils were apparently quite old. She said she'd gotten some of them when she'd set up housekeeping many years ago, while some had been purchased well since and others had been given to her as gifts.

She said it sure made it easy when cooking as she never had to go rummaging thru drawers for that specific tool, they're always right at her fingertips!
