    Beautiful vision you have, I find that kind of great stuff also but just stare at it or admire it as is because i lack the upcycle vision you have. i also am sad to see folks spraying all that toxic spray paint. Why is there only toxic spray paint? I have used a pump sprayer for nontoxic paint at times...is the toxic spray paint the only thing that works on metal? thanks for sharing.

    I really enjoyed these. Tons of inspiration. I think I would’ve liked the candle holder on the pedestal a lot better if the pot lid was painted? Just my opinion of course but I wasn’t a fan of how shiny & new it looked. I loved the patina on those amazing brackets. You created several things that I haven’t seen done before. That’s always a win in my book. I love unique decor and don’t follow along with the masses. Your choices were very creative. I loved the unexpected ones the best. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    Diedre, what brad nailer do you use? I'm looking for one that is light weight enough for me to easily use, but I can't find one that is electric (not cordless/battery or pneumatic) that drives nails longer than 1". If yours is limited to these shorter nails, do you find this to limit its usefulness? Once again, your creativity is inspiring - but I envy your access to a dump where you can find interesting stuff. Here in Washington State, everything is thrown into a pit for the landfill and there isn't a place to pick up stuff.
