Ooooh these reclaimed wooden elephants that came from a temple are fabulous! I plan to use these as end pieces for a rod to display a kimono. Going to look super cool and will take the rod from just blah to a great part of the display. Can’t wait to complete this project! This shop has lots of unique pieces that will provide lots of ideas for you. Don’t miss out!
