    A neighbor was going to throw this stand out, was beige and dirty looking, top piece was off. I grabbed it came home and glued it and then painted it, looks almost new now. Cute piece for my porch!

    Nice! Keep an eye on that neighbor--there may be other treasures in the trash.

    Your ability to recognize a "valuable" item in the trash is a big plus for your porch. This holder turn out really well. Congratulations!!

    So glad you managed to rescue it. Your neighbours loss but your gain - bet they wish they'd kept it now!!

    Great find and great job of restoring it. Just make sure someone doesn't come along and steal it.... like me! :D
