Every year I "junk" up a pumpkin for the library I work at. The hat is from a "shish kabob" cooker and I finally found a way to use some buttons. The nose is a faucet. Love it when I can...

Our light fixure by the front door has always been a dilema...low ceilings mean no fun/fancy light fixture. When I saw this rusty, crusty basket at the French Flea...I knew just what I would do...

Hem Marker Memo Holder

suewannabeinkc, member | October 25th, 20099 comments

You know how some things just "speak" to you, begging to be taken home? I still don't know exactly why I'm drawn to this. Perhaps it's the memory of my mom using one to hem my skirts. I mustve...

Suitcase endtable of another sort

dohlman, member | October 24th, 200913 comments

Barnyard tealight display

Grasshopper22, member | October 24th, 20098 comments

I really like the way this one turned out...the glass square holders were part of a chandalier that I got at the re-store. I found some sticky cut outs of roosters and chickens and placed on the...

dohlman, member | October 23rd, 20097 comments

Tripod lamp (small)

dohlman, member | October 23rd, 20097 comments

A new definition for "book lamp." This one is made out of books to be an occasional lamp--ideally on a bookcase. Pretty simple: get some old books by an author you like or on a topic you...
