Vase / Candle / Office Supply Holder made from Insulators
July 17th, 2009 in member junkAgain I was inspired by one of Sue's books to do something with insulators. I have never seen brown ceramic ones like these before (only blue or clear glass), and had to have them. I have pile of vintage molding and pairing the two made sense. I used small wooden vintage knobs for legs.
Tip: Instead of using a jig-saw to cut out the holes, I used an attachment on my drill that makes perfect holes. Because the wood is oak it took a bit of muscle but was worth it.
Pattern or design used: My own design - Repurposed Antiques

Your innovation with the wood, little feet, etc. is super. Love it with the flowers!
