This is a couple pictures of my bedroom. I hope you enjoy my unique decorating techniques. Please be patient with my picture posting. I'm not very good at it.

Awsome deco StormyS.!.!

Hay bail tongs, ice screw for the old blocks of ice, crosscut saw, ... and I love the old iron.

I have little bottles like yours all along a narrow lip like that. I strung mon-filament along in front of them to keep them from falling. It works most of the time. It doesn't help when I am clumsy.

Nice room. I would sleep well in it. I grew up using most of those tools on the farm.

Don't laugh..... I hot glued these ones to the wall. 99% are ones my honey & I have dug. It don't hurt the bottle but does mess up the wall.

It makes it alot easier to dust. I am up to about 350-400 bottles displayed in my house. I had to get creative. I've started hot glueing marbles to the wall. Doll legs, lids, you name it......

It's great to have time to enjoy life a little. I haope your luck improves. We've been hitting a few auctions lately. Been lots of fun. I love the new leg. I finally am getting used to it. Been a long process. I'm sure you understand. I had the don't wanna walk, it really hurts, would rather crawl syndrome for a while.
