Metal Madness

More tales from "the abyss".  My garage keeps giving birth.



Lots of metal.  Hardware, appliques,




I'll be actively searching for just the right piece for these ornate handles.



a tulip lamp (Why was this in a box?),



lamp parts, and it just keeps going........




For those of you who haven't been with me long, I did a post "Redesigning With Parts", last year. In it, I shared a few things you can make with lamp parts.  Can you guess which two pieces in this next photo I'm going to combine?  I'll do a post on what I create.




I have lots of ideas churning.









There's more of this metal madness, but I have to give my desk another coat of paint.  See ya soon.

  10. Beautiful pieces, Rosemary! I'll bet you can put together a lot of different things with those lamp parts. I think a few of them are even useful on their own. They are all so pretty ~ I can't wait to see what you come up with!
