—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, Sept. 11, 1976 50 Use up (Continued from Page 48) upside down and glue it to the plate. Next, the large plastic bowl (again, Mrs. Snyder recommends a Cool Whip bowl) is glued on, facing upright. On top of this, a saucer is placed upside down and glued onto the bowl. The piece of junk to follow next is a peanut butter jar lid. This should be glued on with the inside facing up ward, so the grooves show. And, finally, an aerosol can lid with a center ring built on the inside is placed open end up on the top of the jar lid. To create the effect of the opening through which oil is poured, a small bottle cap, similar to one that comes from an aspirin bottle, can be glued open end down to the edge of the saucer. At this point, the junk lamp is completely assembled, but should be dried overnight before painting. The paint color used is strictly a matter of choice, says Mrs. Snyder. Any color spray paint can be applied, but flat black is the most authentic-looking. When the body is painted, the last touches to be added are a candle ring, a candle, and a hurrican chimney. Hurricane chimneys come in a variety of designs, some having a band of color or a design etched onto the glass. To insure that the globe fits securely on the top of the lamp, its base should fit tightly into the jar pid. A candle is then placed inside the double center of the aerosol can lid. The candle can be almost any color, and can be one of a variety of widths. As long as it fits in the lid, it is usable. A candle ring is then placed around the base. Mrs. Snyder suggests cutting the ring for ease in placing it around the bottom of the junk lamp. While this procedure is the basic to follow, various combinations of jars and bowls can be used. The shape of the lamp desired deter mines the containers used. • Flats rrpaued or n plat i d promptly • Tube calves repl.ic (d 1 •lin s liquid filled 1 • 1 ire sales it service for ecer> truck tractor md auto on >our farm 1 PHILIP LEBZELTER & SON CO. ( Independent Goodyear Dealer) 1062 Manheim Pike, Lancaster, PA 17604 Longwood Longwood Gardens, Inc. has recently published a revised edition of the ex clusive hard-bound text, Longwood Gardens. This 94 page book covers the cir cumstantial history of one of the most outstanding display gardens in this country, Longwood Gardens. The famed industrialist, Pierre S. du Pont is largely responsible for the splendor of Longwood Gardens. He purchased the property in 1906 primarily to save an old arboretum from a lumbering One helpful suggestion Mrs. Snyder makes is to buy small cans of spray paint and then use the lids as the candle holders. Also, she notes that the first pieces of junk which become depleted are the plates and saucers. These, she says, can be purchased at various second hand stores for as little as 10 cents a piece. In total, the junk lamps take only a few minutes to construct, discounting the time it takes for them to dry, and the lamps make useful, attractive centerpieces. Costs vary on each one, however. Depending on the type of candle and candle ring used,, the junk lamp arrangement can range anywhere from expensive to cheap. “I’ve bought candle rings that cost anywhere from $1.50 to $6, says Mrs. Snyder. And, while she enjoys making junk lamps, she also has many other items which she handcrafts and sells. At Easter, for instance, she creates string Easter eggs which she fills with artificial flowers and different scenes, and at Christmas, she makes miniature Christmas trees out of thistles, among other things. Her junk lamps can be made all year round, however, since the wreaths can be changed to vary with the seasons. So, the next time plastic bowls start accumulating in your kitchen, get rid of some of the junk by making these clever lamps. Gardens releases book operation. Originally 200 acres of farm and tim berland, the property now includes over 300 acres of developed gardens, four acres of gardens under glass, and 700 acres of meadow and woodland. Its fountain system, landscaped grounds and conservatories 1 rival those of the finest' gardens m Europe. The revised edition of Longwood Gardens is comprised of chiefly photographs, some of which are accompanied by ex cerpts from various sources. Eighty-six color illustrations reveal many of Longwood’s most popular attractions, such as rare orchids of South America, waterlilies, the tropical terrace house, the display, chrysan themums in November, the Christmas display in the main conservatory and the acacia passage in February. Longwood Gardens may be purchased from the In formation Center at Longwood Gardens. Longwood Gardens is located near Kennett Square, Pa., at the junction Ifew jot Be HlllfflEß fw yw!
