Deep Fried Decor


Have you ever heard the phrase "Everything's better deep fried"? Well I thought I'd put it to the test in my entryway by using an old industrial-sized deep fryer basket found at a local restaurant supply house. I put it to work holding vases of flowers to greet company. Let me know if you think the "everything's better..." statement holds true.


Recipe for Candy's Ultimate Deep-Fried Decor

Ingredients:

1) 2 bunches of pretty flowers

2) 1 rusty old deep fryer basket

3) 9 cups of milk...glass, that is

Sizzle, sizzle...



At the restaurant supply house checkout, I paid my bill and left a tip...

BUY JUNK!



As always, take care and keep on junking!

  4. I love that Candy! It's so industrial looking, but still "soft." That's also one of those items you could use indoors or out...lots of variations!

    BTW, I do have a few glass pieces saved up to use for birdseed. One is a tulip-looking piece of glass. It's so cute. I just have to build the rest of the totem first. Hopefully I'll get to it tonight.
