I posted this in another forum. I didn't realize it should have been here. I had this outdated bell chime in my home. Just plain stained wood with the brass chimes on the side. I actually wanted to purchase another type more towards Colonial/Primitive, but they were way too expensive. So I went to Michael's Craft store and starting looking around. Came across some cheap moldings for a couple of dollars. I bought one (8" x 5"), unfinished wood. I painted the bell chime black and the molding black, glued this molding to the front of the box and now I have a brand new looking bell chime. Cheap too!

A rind is a terrible thing to waste. Compost.

When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.”

Thanks Joan, but the one I have was bought. I think the one you made looks better than the one I bought.

I have a bell chime in the foyer that looks almost just like the one you made, Joan. Nice job.

I really like that, amazing how some have such great eyes for their imagination...
