Trash To Treasure

Repurposed Bed Springs and Chair Springs

I have been on a roll with the antique and flea market shopping lately. I recently shared some flea market style ideas and some repurposed lighting ideas inspired by these shopping trips. Well, the other day I posted a picture of the bedsprings I bought at the flea market on Instagram and Facebook. I tried to think of some ideas, plus searched the web for some other great ones, so here is a fun round up of repurposed bed springs and chair springs.

Repurposed Bed Spring Ideas

 

My initial inspiration were these strand of lights I saw antique shopping.

You can also print out small pictures and use mini clothespins to attach pictures as well.

Votive candle holders fit well in them too.

You can also fill a tall shot glass with water and make a bud vase.

You can turn the spring sideways and use it for desktop organization.

You can also use it sideways in the kitchen as a recipe card holder.

    Last summer, I had my way with an Old, Old Bed spring! Hubby thought that my “Butter had just slipped off my Toast” when he saw me cutting all 60 Coils from a single bed spring!!! I just set them on the grass and sprayed them either Green, Red, Silver, or Gold. Then I strung tiny beads on some fine wire and wrapped them around each spring – from top to bottom…like strings of lights on a Christmas Tree. Then I didn’t look like a Hanyak!

    I acquired some bed springs and made some snowmen and some Christmas trees. They all turned out okay and sold pretty good. I have 70 springs now looking for a new project for them. I have made some nests with them & some floral vases but need more ideas.
