Railroad Spikes
It is actually quite surprising what people have designed with old railroad spikes in terms of both decorative and functional uses. Railroad spikes can be used to make garden sculptures such as roadrunners. Functional railroad spike creations include a toilet-paper holder, wall hooks and steam train nail coat/key hooks. Authentic vintage railroad spikes are available at the White Pass and Yukon Railway Route as bottle/can openers.
Garden Spike Decorations
Pretty up your garden or reflect your personal tastes and interests with spike decorations. Metal or wood spike decorations are made so that the pointed, bottom end can be driven in the ground to support a colorful sculpture such as a flower. Other designs include birds, butterflies, castles, naval anchors, cats, dogs and horses.
Iron Garden Decorations
Wrought-iron fencing and garden decorations include trellises, arbors, plant stands and iron window boxes, as well as cast iron urns. Other iron decor for the garden or yard includes shepherd hooks, patio furniture, gates, hanging baskets, garden torches, animal figures and birdcages.
Iron Wall Art
Decorate any room in your house with iron metal art work pieces such as candle sconces/stands, crosses, three-dimensional iron wall plaques, and wall grilles in various designs. Use iron frames on photographs, mirrors and pictures. Iron wall sculptures come in many different forms and images to reflect your personality and decor style.
