Challenge of the Week{Wood Projects}


Using wood is the perfect blank canvas for crafting. I love using recycled wood too. The new challenge of the week is creating with wood. I can’t wait to see your creations!

Here is one that I did for my own home using a scrap piece of wood in my yard.

This was my first Pottery Barn knock off and I think it is so cool!!!

I was inspired by the photo

I love the typewriter print. So, I wanted to re-create this look for my home, but in a thrifty way.

I spent $0…..not bad.

Here is what I did:

I took a piece of scrap wood

I traced my circles using a cup and then laid down my letters using stencils.

You can paint on your letters or use a wood burning tool, which is what I did.

After I did that I painted around each circle. I like the look of black and looks very Pottery Barn-ish.

I found a place for my creation on a shelf on my Family Wall. I love it and it describes that family that lives in this house.

Family of 6. Together  we make a family! The biggest blessing in my life.

And the best part about this project is I spent $0, nada, nothing, zero!!!

I hope this week you will be inspired by the tutorials that we have each day. I hope you will come back and link up your own projects so you can inspire others too.
