Junk Yard Art

I LOVE junk yards. I could wander for hours looking for cool finds. I found these three pieces in an abandoned barn a while back:


I assembled them into an outdoor flower sculpture for our patio table:


Upcycled, weatherproof, one-of-a-kind art!

    That is so cute. I have an old John Deere oil can that someone attached a metal flower to, and it is also very cute!

    neat finds. Some of those old beer cans bring lots of money on Ebay. Don't ask me how I know that :)

    I love it! But what really caught my eye was the name on the bottle. My maiden name is Wiedemann. Would you be able to give me the information that's on the bottle and what it was used for? I would love to fing another one like that!
    Thank you!!
