Re: Repurposed Vintage Water Ski & Flashlight Table Lamp with Storage
I also love the use of the flashlight! If you have more of the skis left, you could make a fence or gate/door for the outside, even shutters for the windows. You could also frame the tops of windows and use instead of curtains, and it would be great to see a rack for books, etc, made with several skis used for each shelf and since they are long,the 4 corners to support the rack could each be a ski...!!! Great job!
