Vintage assemblage by: gailmarie Items used - vintage: Albolene cleansing cream tin, pool ball, rusted metal door/drawer handle, wooden spools from sewing thread, wooden and metal pcs; assorted screws, washers and nuts
I liked this vintage tin for its colors and design layout, as well as the used look.
Surprisingly, I had a number of vintage spools that were actually green!!! They made great legs for this little number, I thought.
This is my favorite part of the tin.....the back of the tin, that tells people the product does not grow hair. Isnt that an absolute hoot???? Why anyone would think they could grow hair using this product, is beyond me.....
This is the bottom of the piece. I just liked the look, so I added this to the photos.
