cheese Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 I had this wall between my coat closet and kitchen that I never figured out what to do with. I figured it out. Thanks to Nola Morgan and Dave Akers, I had lots of these jars that Champion used to ship marbles and gems in. So I built this shelf with LED lights and a dimmer switch to display them on. Everything from Vacor to Alley here. Every jar has it's theme. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valerie caught that back when we first got married on a camping trip down on the banks of the Suwanee River. She had so much fun fighting it on light tackle that when she got it reeled in, she flipped the bail and let it back out again. It was so entangled in the braided line with his fine teeth that is was done by the time we got it cut loose, so she wanted to mount it. I did the taxidermy on it myself. Fun memories from that trip.

schmoozer Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 Custom built-in displays are awesome! We have numerous in our house that we love. However, reality bit when we sold our first custom house in 2017. Potential buyers were like “WTF??”. (The exterior was bright blue, the realtor convinced us to repaint it a more neutral color for $20K. The buyer immediately repainted it again🤯.)Took quite a while to finally sell it, but it didn’t stop us from doing it in the new house. live happy!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
