Pair of Vintage Wooden Water Skis as Lighted Storage Organizer with Wire Baskets & More!
I've been having a lot of fun with vintage, wooden water skis lately and it continues with this creation today. I've got two more creations in the works that you'll see in the near future. You know me -- I get fired up with a certain material or object, go nuts and then move on.
It's always grea to run across a matching pair of these vintage sticks! And before someone gets mad about me "ruining" these old water skis, there's plenty of them out there across the continent at garage sales, thrift stores and more. This are my attempts at prolonging the life of great, classic items like these so they can be enjoyed hopefully longer than they were originally intended as water skis.
I'd been holding onto the large Tiger Tobacco tin for a while entertaining the thought of making it some sort of decorative birdhouse, but once I saw the beautiful red on the ski graphics, I knew I had found its home.
This common but classic light fixture finds a great new home up top to shine some light on whatever items get stored in this piece.
