1.The Lamps were made from wooden
dowels painted black with silver beads.
The shades are those little milk containers
when you buy coffee, with ribbon around it.
The flat piece on the bottom of the floor
lamp is a silver concho.
2.The plants were made with a leaf from a
regular size silk plant cut to
shape. I made the square planter from
balsa
wood, and the round planter is from a
water
bottle cap.
3.In the Accessories A pic the Decanter
Bottles were made from beads and
jewelry finds.
The Candle Holders were beads and the
spiral candles were from my sons bass
string guitar.
The Desk Lamp was a bead for the base
with a dowel painted gold. The shade was
from the plastic packaging from
something I bought. I think it was
batteries or something like that. I cut
it out and painted the inside green.
Hang a little chain for the light
pull.
4.On the fireplace in Accessories B the
Ship is a costume jewelry
brooch.
5.On the vanity is a brush and mirror
Vanity Set made from two earrings with
fancy braid for handles.
6.This candle and holder is a wooden knob
painted, with a piece of thread for a wick.

unfinished knob looked like.
7.To make a candle like the kind you have in
a window, you need a straight pin, a clear
bead that resembles a bulb, a jewelry finding
for base, and a 1/2 inch piece cut from a Q-tip.
Glue them all onto the straight pin and presto
...a candle.
I know it doesn't light but it looks so nice
on a window sill.
8.Make candle holders out of the old screw type
earrings. The candles are from a votive candle
wick you pull out and shape into a point.
Real looking candles.
9.The cake cover top is from a chocolate syrup
cap with one of my findings from my findings page
to look like a knob. The plate is from inside a soda
or water bottle cap. It really looks good on a
counter in your mini kitchen. Click here for another pic.
