Vintage CUTEnsils

Cutensils Cutlery Set
Isn't this the cutest set of vintage utensils?! 
Well, actually it isn't vintage at all.
So many of you have asked where I got the mixed flatware!  Many of you assumed I had collected it over the years, but I actually bought my set at a hardware store.  (It is a really cool hardware store!)  I searched online, but was unable to find a store that had a set in-stock.
 
Here you can see this fun flatware in a utensil holder from Tuesday Morning.  (My son's birthday...will post soon!)
 And last year, I used it in this post, Dining Out...Outside on an old door!

So, the good news is...
I found it in stock at ModCloth!  If you haven't been to this fun site, you will love it...the ultimate vintage site!

I will link up here and check my sidebar for buttons!  I am in the process of adding all of them!

    Oh soooo fun! The only problem is, I'd like a full set of each.

    Cute cutlery! Thank you for sharing the Modcloth website. I love it. My daughter is having a country, eclectic outside summer wedding on the water in July. I would love to find something to wear from Modcloth.

    Christie, these are such fun. They remind me of some flatware that I've bought at times in Paris. Full of color and fun! Thanks for sharing the source. ~ Sarah
