Victoria's Crafty Saturday Project

Since Victoria was home from college this past month 

we decided to get a few crafty projects done. 

This was a project she wanted to do for a good friend of hers. 

The one on the left is for her friend and the one on the right is hers.

I think they turned out really nice. 

This is the beginning. We took some wood, had Bill cut it into 12" slats,

 then sanded the boards, painted them

 and then sanded a little of the paint off to make them a little more rustic.

Bill helped us do the finishing touches such as putting the strips of board on the back to hold everything together. We then added eye screws to the top and strung some jute to make a hanger.

And there you have it! 

Oh Crafty Saturday how I love thee!!
