DIY: Antique Cast Iron Base Tabletop Trees

Antique cast iron lamp bases are recycled to create tabletop trees, perfect for winter and holiday decorating!  Back in the summer, I bid on and won a full crate of  antique cast iron lamp bases .   I came across them while browsing a local online auction catalog. They reminded me of old cast iron Christmas tree stands, and I immediately knew they would make perfect bases for tabletop trees. I love mixing styles and using old cast iron lamp bases for my favorite evergreen trees was the perfect way to combine vintage and modern.  WHERE CAN YOU FIND ANTIQUE CAST IRON LAMP BASES?  Cast iron lamp bases come in various sizes, shapes, and styles.  If you want to find lamp basses quickly, eBay and Etsy are the best sources but the more expensive options.  If you have time to hunt, online auctions,  Habitat For Humanity,  architectural salvage shops, and used building supply stores can be more affordable options.  SUPPLIES NEEDED TO MAKE ANTIQUE CAST IRON BASE TABLETOP TREES - Antique c...
