When late summer arrives in Minnesota it is accompanied by a bounty of garden fresh veggies. I head out with my loaf pan and load it up. Look at this mouth watering spread!

Believe it or not, I purchased this beauty at one of the very first JUNKMARKET sales! My girlfriend who was shopping with me at the time said, "what are you going to use THAT for?" And my response, of course, was "EVERYTHING!" Boy was I right. This is one piece of traveling junk I couldn't live without.

She's making an herb garden with hers, and I'm going to pour (a ton) of wax into each loaf with 2 or 3 wicks in each for some fabulous coffee table candles! Thanks for the ideas, I may have to go back and get more! Posted: 6:01 pm on May 8th

eveh writes: It is such a good idea, it is worth making your own if you can't find one. I have so many loaf pans just sitting in my canbinet that I don't use. They are really pretty and four of those the same size, plus a pretty tray, would make a cute display with herb pots or something. I have some glass ones in vintage colors as well as metal. I planned on making bread but I am more a junker than a baker, so there they sit. Posted: 9:17 pm on February 13th

KimberlyMelamed writes: Hi Gretchen,

It is a bakers loaf pan, four pans all connected together. BTW, the girlfriend I was talking about purchased one of these at the Junk Bonanza recently and it looks fab in her house as a mail organizer. I seem them frequently when out and about.

Happy Hunting,

ALVN writes: Kimberly, these are fabulous ideas! I've also seen it where they lean them upright above the toilet and use them to store toilet paper and other toiletries. This would also be great hung on the wall (vertically or horizontally) for collectibles, photos, etc. Thanks for getting the ideas flowing! Posted: 9:52 am on September 1st

TheBlessedNest writes: Such great ideas! I especially love the guest welcoming "basket"! Love to see ideas for using junk in different ways :). I'll have to look for these pans.
