Whisk Broom Ideas

I can't stop looking at whisk brooms.  Is that crazy?  I had to pull myself away from the computer while looking for photos because I kept thinking "just one more, just one more".  I wish I could reach in and touch and run my fingers through the bristles. I'd like to feel the threads of the wires wound together.  I want to wrap my hand around the wooden and metal handles to feel their weight.  Then maybe, just maybe, I'll want to sweep.  I hope you enjoy these pictures and displays that others have put together.  I know I do.

Those are great pics - I could look at prim collections all day! Funny what we love to collect but inspiring how they can be arranged and become precious!
Best wishes

Thank you so very much for this whisk broom post. I copied the sixth pic down. I already had the board that I got at an Amish sale but it had skinny tapers hanging. I left the candles on it and hung the brooms over the top in case I decide to move my broom somewhere else! I have been known to move things around a lot!!! 😊
