Manhole Cover to Outdoor Decor

July 22, 2010 by Amanda Formaro

First of all, kudos to Laurie of Scene of the Grime for finding such an intricate manhole cover. I’ve never seen one quite like this before, with all these lines and detail. Cool! Laurie not only snagged it from the side of the road, but she hung it on the outside of her house for a unique look.

See Laurie’s manhole cover turned outdoor decor here.
