Susan, I think she may have missed your question. BYT Lin made some amazing stakes and now we are all into them!

I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do with them. I am sure the frosted ones with the bigger bowl will go on my lamp. Then I will have the old ones to make like Lin's and the others are still up in the air. Got any suggestions?

They work perfectly as stakes the way Lin used them. You can also incorporate them into the garden as mini-planters. Their shape reminds me of flower blossoms. So there is another idea. Paint or decorate them to resemble flowers, whimsical or realistic. If used as planters, a little piece of screen cut will plug the hole if you use them right side up. Or upside down either. I have a larger glass shade that I used as a planter for some low-growing sedums. I really like the way it looks now. Big Grin

Thanks Tee, I can always go back and get loads more, They had at least 4 different kinds. They would really look great painted in pastels to look like tulips.

Last night after the gals left my home, I sat down for a late veggie dinner and watched a documentary on Flea Markets Across America. OH MY! The one in Kentucky-Alabama looked amazing...127 miles of yard sales!

HGTV has shown that as a special every year. Or at least they have the past few years. It's quite something! Talk about shop til you drop! Big Grin
