With the lip at the bottom (or actually top), it holds pictures perfectly. Would also be great for family pictures!
Before I put it up, I made sure I sprayed it with a good spray poly. And there was nothing fancy done to hold it up. I just used large screws, making sure they were drilled into the wall studs.
Wowzers! Love the rusty patina on this piece. What is it with rust and metal that is so appealing??? I don't know, but I can't get enough of it!
Another great use for the guard rail--ambiance!

How fun. It looks like something you would see in an funky art gallery. Very clever.
Great Vision! It looks wonderful with the budding artists' pieces on it...and I LOVE the votives all lit up! Great repurpose!
What a great idea! I love it, it would work great to hold books as well. Thanks for sharing- Krista
Hello Lanette,I'm Sares from Loveleigh Treasures. I've been following your amazing blog for a while now but have never commented before, bad blogger I know!
I wanted to ask if I could use 3 of your pictures from a previous post (Thurs, March 12, 2009) in a future post of mine. I'm having a blog party soon and would like to use your amazing pictures to set the mood I'm trying to capture.I would of course give you picture credit. If you could let me know as soon as it's convenient, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You so much and have a splendid day!
Love it with the pictures but REALLY love it with the candles! Very nice.
