Wonderful tones of an old familiar friend.

Well done classic and even historical collection. The various metallic tones offer a range of minimal colors. -tv

Just wonderful! I love the soft burnished glow to the metal. The arrangement is also very pleasing to the eye. Well done! (I think I need to go look in the shed!) ~dtallakson

Thanks, everyone! I have been cleaning out the basement in my parents house and thinking about the challenge. When I saw these sitting there, Dad saved everything(!), I thought they might work well against the cement wall for minimal color. I am not sure how well they meet the challenge but I like the way they look. Lydia, I tried it without the crack in the wall but decided that it balances the tall oil can rather well so left it in. It also works as a partial frame along with the shelf. ~Sharon

The shelf used as the lower part of the frame. Genius. -Doug

Oh Sharon! I actually gasped when this popped up on my monitor. Beautiful.

I think I'd crop out the line on the left... but otherwise it's perfect to me. !~Lydia
