The small and large grate pieces got an additional design element I didn't know about. When spraying them with vinegar to keep them wet they developed run lines on them. I think it adds a whole other piece of the "old and rusty" concept.
SMALL GRATE
LARGE GRATE
STRIP METAL WITH HOLES (I found this one along side the road)
BABY BED SPRINGS (purchased at a garage sale and stripped down to the metal)
BONUS - Not a rusty piece, but while I was washing I decided to throw in a piece of my black hand-dyed fabric that I had been using to clean up after a few discharge sessions. I LOVE the way it turned out - really serendipity because I have no idea which dye I used on the original black piece.

The bedsprings turned out gorgeous! Who would have tought that a garage sale would lead to such wonderful fabric :-))
Yeh and to think the lady apologized that it had a big tear in the back of the matress padding. We just smiled and grabbed it and threw it in the van, right??!! Little did she know!
