Today I had nothing on the agenda after mowing, poor planning I guess
I live on the family farm, dad owns the land and buildings but has retired close to 10 years ago.....lots of old junk in the barns. I had rescued 2 old lanterns years ago and hung them in my gun room after knocking the loose dirt off. I never had considered it until a couple days ago I was in a big box home improvement store and noticed some LED lightbulbs that kind of looked like a candle.

I am not a very crafty person but today I put two and two to gather and I thought the results were as good or better than I had hoped!

I am glad that I never took the dirt and dust off of the glass globe as it helps conceal the lightbulb inside

I like the gun room as well as the lanterns. Nice job, no devils workshop for you today! Been on vacation all week, cut some grass played some golf then just vegged out the rest of the week !

You could have come up to the NW corner of the state and shoot woodchucks with me

Nice gun room and nice collection. I hope it is a lot of safe fun for you.

Thank You!
I do consider it reasonably safe... the door is from a local bank vault removed when the bank moved and the building sold.... even back then they had layers of protection built into the vault door
 
My OCD just went in to overdrive, no sleep tonight. In my mind I'll be organizing that gun room all night. Sweet gun room!
