Garage sale find
I'm so excited. I bought this yesterday for $5! The lady said she used it to display jewelry she made. It's already spray painted a bright red and I have some "embellishments" I've had for awhile to put on it. This is the "before" pic for now.

It was just one of those random finds. Don't you love when that happens? I'll post pics soon.

Hanging flower pots and I have a great find from years past. I have old chandelier parts that I am going to wire on. Just you wait. Smile

I haven't put any wind chimes on yet or hanging flower pots but I love the way it looks. What do you think ladies?

This is with the sun shining thru yesterday evening. I have a few longer prisms I could hang on the bottom tier.

that is great!
I can see some colorful small tea pots,
sealed with silicone, sitting on one of the shelves! You would need to cut either chicken wire or hardware cloth to 'make' the shelf.

Lucky you! I would love to have that as an ornament display stand. Smile

What a great idea. See... I was waiting for good ideas from you guys. I have some old silver spoons I want to wire on as wind chimes. Yes, to have a "tray" I would need a shelf. If I hang pots they will have to be balanced. Right now I'm just enjoying looking at it. The prisms sparkle and reflect the sunlight.
