Shark cage


Its not terribly pretty but it sure is functional.
We call it the shark cage but it really holds my paintings while they await a home.


My husband built this for me out of PVC pipe. I love it because, unlike lumber, it will not scratch the canvases and it is light enough to move myself. I am getting another for smaller works.
I just had to show off his handiwork.
Here is a bit of mine.

" By moon we sport and play" SOLD

" Six impossible things before breakfast" 18 x 24 acrylic on canvas

  2. That's a great idea. Probably not terribly expensive to make either.

  4. My husband, like yours, loves to assist in so many ways with things I need, shipping crates, frames, etc. Nothing better than someone who can see your problems and fix with a great solution such as your husband did! This was a great idea, and yes, I can see how lightweight it can be, always a good thing! Yay!
