I think I would keep one intact and repurpose the other two, maybe something like this?

Vintage percolator... transformed into table lamp. My friend Susan and I made a video showing how to do it -- check out my link!

And one for your kitty-

How sweet that would look hanging from a tree outside my kitchen window! The lamp is cute, too, but may not be practical... I'll have to put some thought into that.

@house_cat    You could buy an old milk bottle carrier and you could use for growing herbs.  Small clay pots would fit in the slots which are usually up to 8.  When I was a kid my father delivered milk.  Another thing you can do is go to a store like the Container Store and buy a tall glass container and purchase a spout and pour your regular dish soap in it.  It will also look nice on your sink instead of a plastic bottle.   Cat Happy

Re: Do you have any unexpected kitchen decor items?

I saw this on Pinterest and realized I own an almost identical box that was stashed in the garage.  I brought it in, cleaned it up, turned it on its side and use it for different coffee beans and a small glass container holding a SS coffee scoop and a couple other things I use for keeping coffe gear in good shape, the bean grinder sits on top with another beans container.  My box looks more rustic with old darker stain and some numbers in a faded red stain on the end.  This one in the photo appears to be an old drawer -- such a good idea for decor and practical use.
