A Pane, the Picture and a Lamp-stand

Pane, Picture,Lampstand 

A trio of items that were not originally intended to be together, but then- it just all came together

  Pane, Lampstand pref 

This little bird-cage style lantern was discovered just recently and had for a great bargain.  There did exist a thin tin decorative border around the base that just didn’t seem to match- so- off it came!

  24. I'm kicking myself yet again for not buying the three windows I found at a yard sale a few weeks back for $5 a piece. I didn't have cash on me and they didn't take checks. I'll probably kick myself a few more times over that one.

    I love all your new found treasures but especially the bird cage lantern! Beautiful. I have a house full of 130 year old wavy glass windows. They are great for decorating but not when used for intended purpose.

  45. I can just see us junkin' together, Donna.
    It would never work! HA! There would be a lot of 'Oooh, look over there!' comments to distract each other while we wrestled for the same rusty crusty goods!
    I'd arm wrestle for that bird cage, I tell you what!
