A Fun Winter project
Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2012 3:39 pm
Most of you know that i get these little creative ideas flowing around in my head periodically and I have been talking about making a winter welcome sign on Morning Coffe once in awhile. Well, I'm finally done with it and today it got hung outside for the first time.
It's surprising what one can do with an old board, some paint, wood cut outs, glitter, fake snow (Snow Tex) and a bit of imagination.
This was an old board off a picnic table at the park where I work. I salvaged about 4 of them to putter around with this winter. After I cut the bad end off, I went to work on it. It's not perfect, but I think it's cute.
I have plans to make one for the other three seasons of the year. I know some of you have suggested that I make these and sell them as a way to make some money etc. But these old boards are had to come by, I just lucked out here. Plus, all my spare time would be tied up doing that and it wouldn't be "fun" anymore. But it is something to think about down the line perhaps.
