Inspiration is Everywhere this Spring!

My friend Judy and I went to the Roseville downtown Antique Fair a few weeks ago and found some really cute and functional ideas that inspired us. One item I found was an antiques silver tea pot made into a lamp. I loved the functional use and the silver pot is synonymous with tea and refinement. I must admit my mom gave me a small silver set, complete with cream and sugar. It was in a bad need of a polish so I went to work getting it back into shape. I love it so much I couldn't bare to drill a hole in the top and bottom rendering it useless in the future. So I found the below for $9.00 at the Discovery Thrift Shop in Bakersfield (By the way that was an incredible thrift shop with loads of vintage items all priced very low.) Here is the before:



And here is the After (which Richard, so thoughtfully helped me with):



ReMix - Something old made into something new. I took old unused & mismatched silver tea pot made it into a lamp. Thank you Richard, for drilling, cutting and handling the electrical. OXOX
