Before we go any further, let me explain...that's metal madness...my obsession with metal things that are rusty, worn out, dilapidated and finding a new use and undiscovered beauty in their being.
You might remember my post on metal wire springs made into vases...as I was scrounging around for more springs, I came across a couple of rather large springs...they wouldn't do for vases...so what else could I concoct?
The process begins...metal springs...
old painted boards, cleaned, sanded and waxed...
A couple of double point tacks and my trusty metal hammer (great for working in tight spaces!)...
Pilot holes are always a good idea...
that way you make sure the nail/screw/brad is in the position you want...
Label holder secured with trimmers tacks...
And you have the ideal photo display...
Closeup detail of how I attached the spring...
Being Friday, I am straddling two link-ups...Thrifty Thursday at inspired by charm and
Saturday Nite Special at Funky Junk Interiors...twice the fun, double the inspiration...
