wire teapot totem.

13 years ago

this totem was made using the base of a lamp,yellow vase, another glass part of an old,what I assume,was a 70's lamp bought from the GW.I topped it off with this wire teapot I had saved for the right project to come along.The metal flowers in the vase came off another broken lamp in the dumper.The glass was broken but still salvage the flowers off it. {{gwi:195917}}
