Opinions Wanted - What Would You Do?

[Mel]

There are tons of cool vintage style metal signs out there - we have one in our Safari kitchen area here.

Replace the whole thing, that's the only way you'll be truly satisfied (this coming from a perfectionist)

Count me in to the nice clock crowd. Depending on what type of decor you are doing inside your trailer you can put up just about anything. In my trailer a neon "Tropical Bar and Grille" clock sign would fit there perfectly and the mini LED/faux Neon unit would fit in the hole.

There are a number of reproduction porcelain signs and clocks available at http://www.calcarcover.com/product_category.aspx?id=14 that would be good candidates for a cover. A Route 66 might be appropriate. You can also get that flamed mailbox you’ve been looking for.

If you don't find anything you want to put in place of the other hole, why don't you just cut a piece of peel and stick veneer or glue a panel up to fit the entire easily accessable space of the divider and have no holes just as you would hang paper?

It also looks like you could put up an overhead corner cabinet or even a shelf or organizer that goes all across. Or maybe you could patch it and match the border filler with a great graining paint job and match. How about cutting it larger and putting in one recessed cubbyhole for stuff? Or extend the mounting decoratively of a flat panel tv or build an entertainment center of sorts.

I would start with trying to find out what the holes were originally for.
Then I would go techno geek and get creative. Speakers, sound system,
surveilance system, weather station, fake lab equipment, tank monitors,
built in mandolin tuner, battery monitor, or not. What about a little door
for throwing dirty socks?

how about a picture of your mother??

[jump]

one of those pictures of the dogs playing poker? Or your mother in law?

A sign that says "Good Eats"...

...How about an apropriate sized mirror possibly beveled...attached with 'velcro' dots at four corners...the mirror will reflectback into the room to transfer the wood colors etc and almost dis-appear...easy to keep clean too. Another possible optionis to put a light weight speaker cover as if there were a speaker behind...goodluck

How about a sign like this?

Going through my subscriptions list I came upon this thread and realized I never posted my solution. Well, here it is. My solution to the "hole" problem.

Hi, mello mike.

Well it's about time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Were you lost somewhere on route 66 when you come up with this idea?

Good idea and looks good too.
