wow. You can make yard angels, paint different colors like missmaggie did for a fence, use them on sides of mirrors. I can go on but will leave it to others to post items and pics.

Wow, oh Wow, you certainly did hit the jackpot. On the "Trash to Treasure" forum there is a gal, Margo, who does some wonderful things with spindles, etc. Here's a link to her site: (copy & paste).

Whoa...spindle heaven!

I especially like the one with the design on it in the middle of all of them.

You are a lucky gal! I remember one neat project at Robo Margo's site where someone made a valence out of different table legs and spindles. It was very cool.

That was a great find. Hope you have lots of fun creating with them, will look forward to future pics. Luvs

Gee thanks ladies, think I will wonder on over to Margo's site and take a look.

Oh man...I am so jealous! Great finds!

Count me in as being totally jealous!!! I see some wonderful projects in there. I really like the angels made from spindles and such. Someone got a Secret Santa gift that was an angel. Look over on the conversation side under Secret Santa gifts. Please ...We want to see everything you make!!!!

Also someone made dragonflies from the skinnier spindles, like the ones that come off chairs. Someone made plant hangers which I copied*smile* I believe that was sewigardnut, and birdfeeders by glueing cups and saucers to the tops. And you got a headboard there? Gonna make a bed bench?? Margo cut spindles in half and decorates things with them that way,too. Check her out for dozens of ideas.These are some of the things I made from spindles.

Yes I did get a twin headboard and plan to do a bench for my deck with it. I have to do everything inside since we are having rain and I don't have a garage. Kudzu I plan on doing some copying myself....*grin* Thanks for your nice photos, your stuff is great!
