Upcycle old silverware!

I made this for a Chinese Auction at my families Christmas party last year and everyone loved it. You can hang your measuring cups from them, dish towels, keys, oven mitts, etc. This is a super easy and inexpensive project that is bound to liven up any kitchen!

You'll Need:
  • 3 handrail rosettes 
  • hot glu
  • 2 forks and a spoon or 2 spoons and a fork---using a knife just looks weird
  • spray paint
  • 3 picture hangers


1. Spray paint your rosettes first so that they can be drying while you work on the other pieces of your project.

2. You will be surprised how easy it is to bend the silverware with your hands (especially, if it is the dollar tree brand). 

3. After the paint has dried, hot glue the silverware on the rosette and apply the picture hanger to the back.

4. Hang on the wall and enjoy. You can even make these into magnets!



Cheers.
