Alternate Use

John brought a load of stuff (boxes and some miscellaneous small pieces of furniture) home from MD over the weekend and this plant stand was one of the items. 

It's a nice oak stand that I got at Goodwill for $15. I don't yet have a permanent place for it in NJ, but I wanted to keep it so I just plunked it in an open space. It was really cold so John did not bring my plants and it is currently standing empty.

Justin came home from FL and was thrilled when he saw it. I couldn't understand why he was so excited about an empty plant stand, but I got it when he asked where I got the perfect antler stand. "We can have an "Antler of the Day" and admire it every time we go up or down the stairs!" 


My plants just might have to go someplace else.

  2. Hahahahahahaha! This is just brilliant! Because who does not want to admire antlers when ascending or descending stairs! Well done Justin!

  3. Antler of the day!!!! Brilliant! And . . . definitely one-of-a-kind. :-) That's a beautiful $15 piece of furniture you found at Goodwill. It looks perfect there in your entry way -- no matter what ends up on display.

  4. LOL! Not every house has enough antlers on hand to have an antler of the day -- my house, for instance, has zero antlers! Might I suggest that, as soon as you finish it, your Antler sweater takes its turn on the stand?

  5. I was today years old when I realized that every house needs an antler of the day stand ... ;-)

  6. Hilarious! Perhaps you can nestle some air plants into the antler crooks and you can both have what you envision...

  7. Haha. Perhaps a rotating tableau of antlers & plants? An opportunity to admire both?

    (How many antlers are there?)
