This frame has now become a tray. Removed the maypole picture and replaced it with fabric to co-ordinate with the frame colors and what was going to be placed on it. These candle sticks were some of the things I found while treasure hunting last weekend...modified the color some though. Purchased new candles and now I have a new arrangement for the side board table. 
This is a close up picture of the fabric used in the frame/tray. The fabric is really darker than indicatd in this picture...I think the flash reflected back and appears lighter. Anyway, you get the idea of what I did.
Always fun to figure out a new and different way to use something.
Tell me the latest "project" you accomplished in giving an old item a new repurposed life.

Wow! I love that idea. You are so very smart. I wish I had that gift to see things like that! It is beautiful.
Very pretty girl....I love that idea...I have an oval silver tray with little feet that I am wanting to do something like that with! I hope you have a great weekend friend!
Nice job on the repurposing!

What a clever idea. It's not anything that we've done much before - repurposing - but now we've got some time I'm sure we'll be trying it out.
Great idea - and when you light the candles, lots of light will be reflected!
Love that idea! Makes a great tray and that fabric is very pretty!

Nice idea Amelia!
I rescued a treadle sewing machine base at a junk store. It is sitting in my garage along with a wire brush for removing the rust and some flat black paint. When I have time, I'm going to paint it and then put a nice wooden top on it to make a small side table for my family room.
Great idea! I don't need to think of anything..I just come here and get ideas. :D ha!
Hi Amelia, Great idea! And I love the fabric you used, very pretty! The candlesticks were a great find, too! I haven't been quite so blessed in "my hunts" the past couple of weeks!
The clipboard project turned out really cute, too! Hope things went well for your grandaughter's wedding! :) ~hugs, Rhonda
You could have a second career as a decorator......one who works on a budget! LOL On second thought, you have a second career named Leon, right?
Great ideas for found treasure.
Great idea Amelia ,don't you just smile when people go out and pay a fortune for something similar .
Love the tray idea. That is a wonderful repurpose.
I am working on a basket that I guess would be a repurpose. It is going to be for when I get to photograph new babies (my sis-in-law is due in July). It also has to fit in my house somewhere too.
