Update a Lamp to Jewelry Hooks


How to make jewelry hooks from a lamp. 
Remember the lamp my daughter found on the side of the road?



Some of the pieces were re-purposed as hooks.


I attached the hooks through the back of the board with washers and screws.


 Now the board can be screwed securely to the wall to hang heavy coats.



 Or hung from nails in my bedroom to hold jewelry.



A great re-purpose for an old lamp!
