Re-Purposed Industrial Ventilator...

Over the past couple days Frog Husband & I have been Organizing, Stacking & Storing - SHaBBies for the long Winter Months...

  Occasionally I'll get inspired & route a few items inside house...

 This VENTILATOR was one of them...

 I brought this FaB Old VENTILATOR to Sell at the Kane County Flea last weekend...  A good number of people thought it was quite awesome, but no one took it home... 

 EVERYONE said - "What would I do with it"??? 

  Here's what I did with it!*!*!

Just PeRfeCt at the End-of-the-Hall,

"UP" on the Cabinet...

 It's such a nice "smaller-size" and has acquired a

 wonderful time~worn PaTiNa... 

I'm planning on adding some "tiny round Christmas bulb lights" just under the top band... 

ANOTHER DISPLAY IDEA 

Just FaB Outside On-The-Deck/Porch

with HoLiDay Lights & Greens...

I can just **SEE** the Snow Falling down on it!*!*!

NOW S*O*L*D

**ChiPPy!-SHaBBy!** Re-Purposed WHITE WEDNESDAY!*!*!

OMG!!!  I Think I'm on to a "New SHaBBy Collection"!*!*!  Some time ago I picked up a chippy old light fixture and adorned it with a decorative glass globe and votive candle...  I liked it - "but didn't love it"...  Over the weekend my SHaBBy-Eye caught a glimpse of 2-More chippy old light fixtures...  IN A GROUPING THEY'RE JUST FaBuLouS!*!*!   Sooooo my advice to you - ALWAYS BUY WHAT YOU LOVE...  SOMETIMES IT JUST NEEDS AN ADDED ADORNMENT -OR- IMPACT OF A GROUPING...

**Now Hop On Over to FADED CHARM'S White Wednesday & enjoy the rest of the entries as well**

 I'm now hooked on collecting these old light fixtures...  I think a larger grouping of different heights on an old tray would be a perfect table centerpiece!*!*!

  PaTiNa adds such unique character!!!

"Sooooo much more interesting than brand new"...

I find it perfectly acceptable to mix in a bit of color... 

I  L*O*V*E  the fluted bobeche edges... 

BeSt-Ever, Re-Purposed Light Fixture Candle Holders...
