A Teacup Chandelier

My version of a teacup chandelier upcycle....I found some old teacups, spray painted a chandelier light fixture to match them, and bonded the teacups to each section with E6000 glue (wonderful stuff!).  Here it is shown with fresh flowers in each cup, but it could also be used to hold tealights and hung in the garden to enjoy at dusk.

Upcycle Project for the Garden

Very old chipped Blue Ridge Pottery teacups with broken handles are bonded to a heavy iron candelabra which was painted bright celery green.  It can be used in the garden as a bird feeder or a planter for small vining plants

Yard Sale Find BEFORE & AFTER, Plus, a fabulous giveaway at Bella Rosa Antiques

I wanted to post about a great giveaway at Bella Rosa Antiques - Jillian is celebrating her shop's 5-year anniversary.  Giveaway is through June 7th, so hurry on over!

Here is a yard sale find from this past weekend, a cute wooden chair that I wanted to spruce up to place in my flower garden.  I painted it using chalk paint in an emerald green, then added a bit of Martha Stewart's Black Coffee antique stain.  I like how it turned out.
