We love it when people take something with a specific original purpose and flip that purpose upside down to create something new and totally awesome! Many of our customers have been doing just that with our antique tin panels, available in 11 in. by 11 in. and 23 in. by 23 in. and other various sizes.

The tin we salvage and sell is all about 100 years old. Our craftsmen fasten the tin to a wooden frame, which makes the finished piece extremely easy to hang. The photo below shows a beautiful statement piece that was created using our 11 in. by 11 in. tin panels.

For people that prefer a simpler approach, placing a single tin panel or a small cluster of panels in fun areas can add depth and vintage charm to any room of your home. Below are two more images that show how fun this type of decorating can look – thanks Carrie and Accents by Nancy for sharing your photos with us!

These panels can be bought in all of our stores, online, and at our flea markets and shows as well. If you find a creative use for them, send us some photos! We would love to see what you come up with.

One of our valued customers  had a unique idea for our original tin ceiling panels.  Originally 100 year old ceiling tin salvaged from NE United States commercial and residential buildings – this tin has been re-purposed by Olde Good Things to be used as decorative wall panels.  These have been very popular for this purpose.  But what did he do?  He used them as originally intended – as ceiling tin – but this time as a many faceted patchwork tin ceiling.  Very nicely done.   Come up with your unique ideas.  These panels can be purchased online, through our retail stores and at our week-end outdoor sale locations at the Brooklyn Flea and Eastern Market in DC as well as Alameda Antiques Fair and the Rosebowl in California.  11 in. x 11 in. panels are only $35/ea.  – 23 in. x 23 in. $65.
