My Christmas Gift

I lost my camera or I should say the DH lost the camera so I had to get the old one out to take a picture. It was a hassle but I finally got it taken. Anyhow, this is the gift my brother made me. It's an old lamp shade made into a flower. It has rebar for the stem and leaves. All items are recycled. As you may know from previous posts he is a dumpster diver and "rescues" items out of the recycle bin!Hope you enjoy!!!!!

    My DD has a similar shade in her kitchen and they want to chage it--Hope they do, cause I will probably get it!

    What a treasure to have a wonderful brother like that!! He is very talented and I am so proud of him for "dumpster diving"! Makes my heart proud!! Love your new flower, very pretty. And your little vignette is great eye-candy! Hafta say, I'm coveting your darlin' lil' piggy!!
