Remember these?
Nothing like a little of this…
So you can end up with these…
I thought I would clean up the brass using Brasso, but when I got to cleaning and polishing, I noticed that several of the glass inserts were cracked in the corners and two flat out broke while I was working! So I popped out all of the glass, grabbed my trusty spray paint and went to town.
I LOVE the new finish on these!
They look right at home on my front porch!
I’m still considering creating new handles for them, but I like the idea of hanging them at some point for outdoor dining and entertaining, so I’m still thinking that through. In the meantime, I’m enjoying them as is. All $1.50 of them. 🙂

They look brand new, Heidi! Great choice of color and I’m sure you’ll get lots of use out of them throughout the year.
