Vintage Style

I thought I would post a blog on how to utilise some of our Vintage Wares. The Bobbins look fabulous as Candle Holders, a Taper fits perfectly into the end.

Our old Antique Shoe Lasts also make a quirky talking piece with a candle popped into the heel.

Sure to be a talking point in your home or store!

Letters Galore....

We are forever on the hunt for these gorgeous Letterpress Trays. Not only fabulous as a Shadow Box but a lot of our retailers use them as a Jewellery display piece. Great for earrings, shells or necklaces! The only limit is your imagination! Till next time.....x

Custom Handmade Products ♥︎

With the high emphasis now a days for reusing & recycling materials we have started to make a lot of  handmade products using timbers salvaged from old factories, homes & the like. We also do custom framing which can be viewed on our Instagram page #picketfenceimports. There is always something 'new' & are happy to accommodate any special request! 

Till next time x

At Picket Fence imports we try to re-use & re-cycle any thing we can get our hands on! This old Painters Ladder for example was ready for the Council clean up & rescued, restored & now a functional piece! The shelves are made from re-cycled Oregon & sealed with durable varnish to give many years of use! Details on our website!
