Last weekend I stopped off at my favorite antique store in all of Southern California, The Pasadena Salvation Army Antiques and Collectibles. There happened to be a storewide sale of 50% off(lucky me) so I picked up a few things here and a few things there. The one random object I bought that I am really excited about was this weird brassy gold tree stand that held these truly hideous bird statues of various color and species. Seeing the potential behind the ugliness, I bought the stand, broke the birds off, stripped it down to its nitty grits and repainted it with a matte acrylic brown. For under $10 I not only purchased the stand, but completely revamped the whole thing and scored an amazing jewelry tree in the process.
