How to use an Old Meat Chopper in Your Decor

Imagine this sitting in your kitchen at the ready?

Imagine this sitting in your kitchen at the ready?

I picked up this rusty old meat chopper for a few bucks. The blade has definitely seen better days, but then, I didn’t buy it for the kitchen.

I am fascinated with old industrial items. This ancient “labor saving device” is exciting to me. I love cranks, crankshafts, flywheels and gears.

Think about it, this is your great-grand-mother’s food processor.

I placed a faux plant and holiday lights in the bowl and placed it on a window sill. I love the morning silhouette of the hardware as the sunlight streams into the hallway. The softness of the greenery is a fun juxtaposition with the hardness of the metal and structural design of the gadget.

This is what repurposing is all about.
