I've started browsing second hand stores. I feel like I'm admitting a terrible secret because it seems to have become addictive. It is a bit like going on a treasure hunt each time I head out.
The object(s) of my browsing have become many and varied. I'm working on recycled/repurposed Cake Pedestals like the one above. This is a glass plate epoxied to a candlestick. It was just dumb luck that I found two pieces that match. I've also made one that is dark blue. I am busy on a clear version that is decoupaged. I have a beautiful pink glass platter that is waiting for me to find a matching pedestal item.
I'm also working on using old ceramic dishes in new ways, but more on this later.
If nothing else, I will be able to blog about the merits/horrors of thrift shop shopping!
Let's just say I'm having fun with this project for now. Nothing is ready for the website yet, but stay tuned.
