The Versatile Hanging Saucer - Ένας Ευέλικτος Κρεμαστός Δίσκος

Sharing is caring!

I hope everyone is well and keeping cool.  I’m spending lots of time on the balcony these days.  I am also  elbow deep in my barbecue grill box, pulling pieces out to try and repurpose them.  You may recall I used one part to create a planter and another part for a Father’s Day Gift. Here is the next piece that I am repurposing today to make a versatile hanging saucer. Say what?

Ελπίζω όλοι είστε καλά και να μένετε δροσεροί. Περνάω πολύ χρόνο στο μπαλκόνι αυτές τις μέρες. Έχω χωθεί βαθιά μες στο κουτί της ψησταριάς, γυρεύοντας κομμάτια για να επαναπροσδιορίσω. Μπορείτε να ανακαλέσετε το ένα κομμάτι που  δημιούργησα  μια γλάστρα και ένα άλλο κομμάτι που εφτιαξα ένα δώρο για την Ημέρα του Πατέρα. Εδώ είναι το επόμενο κομμάτι που θα επαναπροσδιορίσω σήμερα σε έναν ευέλικτο  κρεμαστό δίσκο.

It looks like the bottom of a flying saucer with three holes on the edge. I really didn’t care for the  shiny black so I painted over it using blackboard paint mixed with white.

​Δεν μου άρεσε το γυαλιστερό μαύρο και έτσι το έβαψα με χρώμα  μαυροπίνακα  αναμειγμένο με λευκό.

I then cut up α burlap ribbon into three sections about a yard in length.

Στη συνέχεια έκοψα μια κορδέλα σε τρία μέρη, ένα μέτρο σε μήκος το καθένα.

And then I made knots down the length of each one.

Και έκανα κόμπους κατά το μήκος του κάθε ενός.

The ribbons were joined together and bound on the top through a curtain ring. Everything gets repurposed today. 

Οι κορδέλες ενώθηκαν μαζί στην κορυφή με ένα κρίκο κουρτίνας. Τα πάντα  ξαναχρησιμοποιουνται  σήμερα.

After threading the ribbons through the holes on the black saucer, I tied them together in a big knot. …

… using a pretty yellow thread. 

... με ένα όμορφο κίτρινο νήμα.

The next piece I used from my never ending stash of odds and ends was the base of a paper towel holder without the rod. 

Το επόμενο κομμάτι που χρησιμοποιήθηκε ήταν η βάση μιας θήκης ρολού χαρτιού κουζίνας.

Then to just give it a little color I added some of my homemade furniture wax which you can find here.

Στη συνέχεια, για να του δώσω λίγο χρώμα πρόσθεσα μερικά από το σπίτι μου κερί για έπιπλα  το οποίο μπορείτε να βρείτε εδώ.

The next step was to add staples to the wood, and you’ll see why below.

Το επόμενο βήμα ήταν να προσθέσετε συνδετήρες στο ξύλο, και θα δείτε γιατί παρακάτω.

I have many bracelets but never wear them.  

Έχω πολλά βραχιόλια, αλλά ποτέ δεν τα φοράω.

Let’s repurpose them!

Ας τα επαναπροσδιορίσουμε!

And now I just slip the tealight holder in and I’m done. The staples keep the bracelet in place so it doesn’t slide around on the base.

Και τώρα βαζω μέσα το κηροπήγιο για κερί ρεσό και τέλειωσα.

This hanging saucer is very versatile it can hold practically anything.

Αυτός ο κρεμαστός δίσκος είναι πολύ ευέλικτος, μπορεί να κρατήσει σχεδόν οτιδήποτε.

This little beauty is  out on my balcony.  I  just love  how easily it came together and how much fun I’m having changing it up. 

Αυτή η μικρή ομορφιά είναι έξω στο μπαλκόνι μου. Μου αρέσει πόσο εύκολα το  εφτιαξα και πόσο διασκεδαστικό είναι να το αλλάξω.

And so I have created a pretty veriatile hanging saucer for my tealights.  I also managed to repurpose three different items for this little  project, which you can see below.  And wait for it… I still have more pieces from the barbecue grill.  Oh lucky me!  What would you have done with a little saucer like this?

Και έτσι  δημιούργησα έναν κρεμαστό δίσκο για το ρεσό μου. Επίσης, κατάφερα να επαναπροσδιορίσω τρία διαφορετικά αντικείμενα για αυτό το μικρό έργο. Και περιμένετε … εχω ακόμα περισσότερα κομμάτια από την ψησταριά.  Τι τύχη ειναι αυτή!  Εσείς τι θα κάνατε με ένα μικρό δίσκο όπως αυτόν;

[…] ​This is the upper half of the flying saucer, you may remember that the bottom half was turned into a planter. I also used another piece to create this tealight hanging saucer. […]

Mary, you're so clever!!! I love how versatile it is and so pretty too!! It's amazing how you thought of this!! I really like all the different things you put in there and the bracelets can give it a new look in just seconds. I can't wait to see what else you got up your sleeve for the grill!

I try Keri. I think it has to do with the fact that we are exposed to so much creativity all day through the blogs that our minds start to expand, in a good way.

Debra I like to keep you in suspense. I actually had to think twice as to how I would present this.

Thank you Michelle, I try to keep an open mind and sometimes its a matter of having seeing something in front of you and then it clicks. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, you have so many beautiful creations.
