i am looking for rustic pails in various sizes up to 3 gallons.?

Answer 1

A much cheaper way to go would be to buy regular galvanized pails and rust them yourself. Just fill a plastic wastebasket or garbage can with enough water to cover the pails and add 2 cups of vinegar and a cup of salt. It'll take a few days. When they look the way you want them to, dry them thoroughly and put a coat of Stepsaver or Mop n Glo on them.
I realize rustic and rusted don't mean the same thing, so if you have some other style in mind, say distressed, please add more details.

Answer 2

go look up in your local phone book for flea markets or antique stores if you want the real thing, if it doesnt matter make them rustic yourself
