What to Make With a Rusty Spring

I love everything about rusty springs.

For today's project I cut an extra large rusty springs in half and screwed them to an old piece of drift wood.

After inserting 2 thin glass vases into the springs, I had the perfect rustic little vase stand. That is all there is to it!
