I was excited to hear about Margo's Party to Show Off Your Industrial Chic! I've never done a linky party before, so I thought I would join in the fun -- only thing is, I'm still stuck in the Primitive/Cottage era, as Margo would say. She has evolved to Industrial Chic from Cottage. It IS very cool. Here's my one and only attempt for Industrial Chic and it's not in my house, but in my garden shed. I wasn't really trying to be Chic, but perhaps she might include this just for grins!
This is an old display case for metal weather stripping that I bought at a garage sale. I didn't know what to use it for until I got it home and decided that it would be great to hold my garden tools. It sits neatly in the corner and keeps them all contained and not just piled up in the floor like they were. I guess you could say this thing is actually "repurposed" but I guess Industrial Chic is repurposed stuff, too!
Here's another close-up shot of this display case. I just love it - AND it's that vintage-y green, too! Can't go wrong with that! It's got all different sized holes in the top for different size weather stripping - which gives me all the right spots for my tools.
Well, there you have it! This is my contribution to the Industrial Chic party! Can't wait to see what the rest of you have to show off! (Margo, where's the refreshments???)
