I'm a recycle artist. I Look at other people's trash and see a treasure. My goal is to make other people see it too, to realize that new is not always better and Just as much joy can be found in an old rusty piece of wire as a new lamp from Tiffany's--you just have to dig a little harder to see it.

So check out my etsy shop where I can take an old hunk of electric fencing wire and make it into a beautiful wine bottle display, a windchime or candle holder. See how an old wine bottle can be a beautiful centerpice for your holiday table, or to hold your lowly cheese log. Don't forget to stop over and take a look at my blog, where I am posting frugal, home made, easy, quick and cheap heartfelt treats for Christmas or everyday.

A place to hang your special ornaments, or those really heavy ones that don't hang well on the tree. I made this with recycled electric fencing wire, fashioned and welded on hooks and added...

German Smoker

These are supposed to be made out of wood, but I'm no wood worker. So, I made mine out of clay. When he is dry and fired, I can put incense inside and the smoke will come out of his...

Upcycled candle holder

Nov 18, 2009

I take old wire fencing and twist it, clean it, shape it by hand and weld it into new things, like this candle holder that can hang from a hook on the wall, from the ceiling, or outside.
