    The Vermont Country store is one. Are there others? I'm thinking especially of the type of store that sells to the Amish in Pennsylvania. I'm looking for some ironing accessories that are metal and will last......

    This is our favorite. We have been buying from them for years. Most of our stocking stuffers for Christmas are purchased here. HTH

    Do you have an Ace Hardware or True Value Hardware store? Bet you could find one there. I think TV more than A.

    Find what you need at Vermont Country Store website, then GOOGLE the item and I bet you will find it elsewhere for less. I hate to say it, (being from VT) but their prices are way too high!!!

    Lehman's is here in ohio up on Amish country. Their website is very good. The store takes all afternoon to get through. What fun it is. They will probably have what you want.

    I've been to the store-it was huge (this was at least 20 yrs ago). I still have the wooden washboard I bought there. Never used. :mrgreen:

    I have never understood how rubbing on a wash board is supposed to help you clean clothes.
