Pegi, I was going to mention the carousel plates from defunct microwaves so thanks for doing that. My GW usually marks them at only .99 each, but today orange tags were half off so I picked one up for .50. Plus with another 10% off for my Senior Discount it was all of forty-five cents! They are fairly large and heavy. They work well as bases, I agree, Pegi. I also got a number of components for the 3-stack vignette I want to do for the shade garden. Now I see I'm running short on E-6000 until I can get to the store. Always something. It's like cooking ... I never seem to have quite all the ingredients I need when I want to make something. Sigh!
But the trip to GW was a success. I found a really cool thing. Now I sprung for $4 for it, but it is a huge glass lamp shade. I mean, it's BIG. Oh, it's a beauty! I'm either going to use it as a planter or as the base for a very tall and substantial totem as I find more components. Or? It's about 17" in diameter. I got sooo excited. Doesn't take much to amuse some people, does it?
Even had a lady stop at the checkout to remark on it and ask what I was going to do with it. She suggested a planter and something else. Score!
