Trash to Treasure: Transforming Vintage Silverware
Decorating Cents : Episode DCT-1901 -- More Projects »
Robb Whittlef shares how to make use of vintage silverware.
Picture Holder
Attach old forks to a piece of decorative trim with screws. Using pliers, bend the tines up into a semi-circle shape to hold small picture frames.
Plate Holder
Use a vintage fork to hold a decorative plate. Bend the two outside tines back to act as the stand and bend the two inner tines up and over to hold a plate.
Mirror Holder
Cut a piece of wood larger than the mirror you want to display. Paint or stain, as desired. Decide the placement of the mirror, then, place four spoons on the board under the mirror with the handles positioned toward the center. Remove the mirror and attach the handles with screws. Finally, place the mirror back onto the spoons and bend them around to hold the mirror in place.
