Can you get inspired by a can of "stuff"?
Maybe excited is a better word?
Not sure what I would do with the innards of the door knob...
but hinges are always handy.
I have boxes of them,
and I'm just sure I will use them some day. =D
But look at these old backplates. Wonderful!
And these wonderful and very old glass doorknobs.
And this doorknob with such beautiful patina.
and this is the other side.
So, would you be inspired to do something with these?
Or is it just the excitement of digging through that 3 lb. coffee tin,
and finding all these treasures?
blessings on your day.

Just the thought of unexpected treasures is enough but then finding those wonderful doorknobs and backplates definitely makes it all the more fun.
ReplyDeleteThose little fork easels are just adorable!
Hope you are much better. Have a great weekend! :) Tammy
I would love to get that can from you....if you've been checking my blog lately, you will see I just made something from this very thing. Love to have more like them but they are kind of expensive. Have fun with your imagination!
ReplyDeleteOoh, those glass door knobs are rather gorgeous. It IS exciting to dig through a tin like that, I'd love it as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm inspired just looking at them. I love old door knobs and parts of door knobs. I have used some just sitting around for decor.
ReplyDeleteI get excited digging through old stuff. I am excited right now just looking at the old door knobs. lol I always wonder to myself, what hands have touched these vintage treasures.

This would be so exciting and even more exciting would be to go through a box of vintage linens! LOL.
