Welcome! I'm Jeanette - I'm The Crafty Hobbit! I rescue thrifted memories and update them with modern style for new homes :)

Often times I run across things that are just a bit different than what you can find in the stores - like this somewhat squared bottom farmhouse milking pail. Did you know that milking pails are different than utility pails?

Maybe not considered hard to find, but many people think milk pails are the same as utility pails but, they're not. Milking pails have a wider bottom and are often shorter in height to help prevent tipping over. So, this piece is a milking pail but it was baby pink! I've restored it back to its true original appearance and if you want a true milking pail instead of a utility pail (wide top, narrow round bottom) then here's one for you to pick up without too much further searching. 4 inches tall, 4-1/4 inches across (milking pail - height is shorter than width)

Also included is 1/2 ounce of hypo-allergenic 'hay' made of multi-media mix of paper, jute and sisal twine so you don't have to worry about dust or allergens from real hay. 1/2 ounce of 'hay' fills a sandwich size ziplock bag.

You can find me on Instagram @CraftyHobbitGiftsUSA and many other unique items in my online store.

Thank you for looking!
