4th recycled project from wardrobe

You can read about the wardrobe I am using for recycling pieces and project #1 HERE



And for project #4 I used the top board that held the wardrobe stable.



Yet again, a sign it is...... I found some great cardboard letters at TJ Maxx used for scrap booking. They were only $1.99 and will be used for hundreds of future projects. The board was long, so I needed a long word. I chose Martha's Vineyard. I lined them up first to make sure they'd fit.


I painted it a funky green. Next I painted the letters on....Once dry, I distressed the sign....It's fun whimsical, and unique.......





Only two days left to enter my Etsy seller #2 GIVEAWAY.



I'll be linking to these PARTIES

  2. Very original! You are going to become known as the 'sign lady'! There isn't any place, expression, word or phrase that can't become a statement piece (literally). So, is there anything left of the wardrobe???? Happy Weekend!

  5. Hey Lisa! LUV that sign you made! You've got my brain spinning with ideas for pieces of old wood in my barn..... lol! Did you just trace those letters on the wood and then paint the outline by hand? Great job!
