I inherited an old silver clarinet from my grandparents. Before starting on the project we checked the value and it wasn’t worth anything and it was too far gone to be repaired. I knew I wanted to do something with it rather than letting it sit in it’s case and never be seen. I decided to turn it into a lamp!
It was extremely tarnished so I wanted to clean it up. I first tested several techniques for cleaning silver you can see that tutorial here –

What a fabulous way to keep a family heirloom in view! It can bring back memories every day. So much better than hidden away in a case!
Thank you Linda, I do enjoy having it out on display. It’s in our basement as we call it our “blues basement”. It’s literally blue down there but we have a music clock and art down there. It fits in nicely. 🙂
Love it!
SO much better than just leaving it in a case. Now you can enjoy it everyday. Such a clever upcycle
Thank you Julie, we really love seeing it everyday 🙂
What a great upcycle idea! It must being fun memories when you see it everyday. Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday!
Thank you so much and I truly do love having it out to enjoy.
I love repurposing things we love this way. It’s so much better than packing them in a box.
Thank you Donna, it’s so true. I don’t get to enjoy it while it’s stored away. Much better to see it and have the memories everyday.
