Assemblage

This is another piece I made recently, assemblage this time. The base of this is a vintage wooden table mat. I've used these before and they're really sturdy and can take alot of abuse! ;o) Added to the base is the lid of a vintage tin, attached with copper nails, topped with a cake mould of some sort, a vintage bottle of rusty pins and copper wire. Hey presto!

I love the idea of using old table mats as supports, must give that a go! Lovely piece, and good to see you delving into your scrap metal stash!

Thanks, guys. ;o) Yep, the tablemats are good sturdy bases for whacking nails into!
