Welcome to another Repurpose Design Series Reveal Day!
I decided not to purchase anything at all for this week’s transformation. So, I headed to the barn and found some reclaimed wood that we got from an old building on family land.
My husband helped me turn it into a cross.
I painted it in Annie Sloan pure white and distressed it with fine sand paper.
To add a little interest, I added twine around the middle.
It looks nice hanging on the wall.
I just left the twine long in the back to make a loop to hang it from.
As a variation, I decided to hang some lemon thyme from the cross.
Oh the possibilities with reclaimed barn wood!
What did you transform for $20 or less this week?

ReplyDeleteI love this. I liked the chippy original paint too. It looks lovely on your wall.
ReplyDeleteI used to make crosses like this out Of driftwood i found on the beach and would tie the twine leaving it long in back for hanging also. That was 20 yrs ago. I need to make them again.
