A few weeks ago, a big ol' tree branch fell on a neighbor's wooden shed. They've since been fixing it, and as they were, we spotted one of the old wooden doors in the trash and just had to have it! "Why?" you might ask. Well... to make a jewelry board, of course!
My prize :)
We first sawed it, about 2'x3'. We wanted to make sure to keep the handle on it so it still looked like part of a door. Then we went to the local hardware store and got screw hooks that fit our size preference.
Making marks where the hook will go.
Screwing holes into the board for the hooks.
The finished product. We bolted a wire to the back and hung it by two nails.
The door was free, and the hooks were only $2.50 for a pack. Plus only about an hour of our time. Ain't so bad a deal! Now what to do with those extra door pieces... a bracelet board, maybe? Hmm...
