2011 Spring Inspiration


This is my new outdoor Spring Inspiration.
My old 10 speed has found a new purpose in life. This bike I dug out of my parents garage a few months ago when I was inspired by a friends back yard decor. This bike was once my prize possession as I peddled around the neighborhood thinking I was a realy cool kid. It has been stored in my parents garage, shed and then back to the garage and many times over the years thinking about takeing it to the Good Will. I stripped it down, removing all the un-necessary items like the breakes, and the chain. I then painted it a School Buss Yellow leaving the seat and wheels plain. I added the basket of flowers to the handle bars (wicker garbage basket from Ross, $3.99) and then a small can of flowers below the seat (coffee can from garbage at work, washed and painted). I have a few more ideas to follow once the weather warns up. Enjoy!!
