COMMENTS WILL RE-OPEN on MONDAY, DECEMBER 2.
For the first time in, like, 13 years, I am taking a real vacation from the blog, to spend un-distracted time with family. Yes: I’m disconnecting from the interwebs for a bit!
As part of this, Commenting on the blog is paused. Meanwhile, please enjoy reading all the many stories in our archives — and come back Monday, Dec. 2 when I will launch our annual giveaway of a vintage ornament wreath made by Georgia Peachez — and when comments will reopen so you can enter to win!
HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYONE!

Hi – I have a Crane Drexel bathroom sink; how can I clean the faucet aerator? Thanks in advance for any help.
Pam Kueber says
Hi Sis, I don’t know the answer to this. I suggest you give deabath.com — they are Crane experts. Tell ’em I sent you. Good luck.

I have a 1964-65 American Standard bathroom sink: attached to the wall with time all around the bathroom wall half-way up. The faucets have a done base & I think that they are called “thru-sink faucets”. The are in the back wall of the sink itself. The pipes come thru the sink. They are becoming “I n-chromed”: they are peeling at the faucet exit site & are scratchy. Help … I need new faucets!!! Any ideas??
Pam Kueber says
Hi Ninna, I am not able to envision what you are describing. One place to try for help is deabath.com, tell them I sent you. Good luck, Pam

What type of wood way used in Youngstown Monterey style upper cabinets?
Pam Kueber says
I don’t know the answer to this. See this story, I think they just tell us “natural hardwood”: https://retrorenovation.com/2009/08/28/youngstown-kitchens-monterey-cabinets/
