SHUTTER REPURPOSED - DRY BRUSHED AND DISTRESSED

I HAD GOTTEN 2 OF THESE

SHUTTERS A WHILE BACK

HERE IS THE BEFORE...

THEY ARE GREAT OLD WOOD 

SHUTTERS. I THINK I GOT THE

PAIR FOR ABOUT 5 DOLLARS.

ONE OF THE SHUTTERS I MADE

A COAT RACK FROM AND THIS

OTHER ONE I FINALLY GOT

DONE. IT'S IN MY OFFICE

AND IM USING IT TO HANG

UP SOME OLD VINTAGE PHOTO'S 

AND SOME NEW ONES AS WELL.

AFTER...

I DRY BUSHED IT WITH
TWO DIFFENT COLORS AND
LET SOME OF THE DARK WOOD
SHOW THROUGH, THEN I ANTIQUED
IT WITH WOOD STAIN!

LOVE THESE GREAT OLD PHOTOS
THIS IS ACTUALLY HOW THEY
TOOK A BATH IN THE DEPRESSION
ERA!

AND I PAINTED THE BACKSIDE

A DIFFERENT COLOR WITH SOME

TURQUOISE IN IT SO IF I GET

TIRED OF THIS COLOR I CAN

FLIP IT OVER.

ITS A GREAT WAY TO DISPLAY

PHOTOS!

HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

MUDD ROOM LOVE

MY MUDD ROOM IS FINALLY DONE!

I GAVE YOU A SNEEK PEEK A
WHILE BACK THERE WERE A FEW PROJECTS INVOLVED IN THIS PIECE SO
IT TOOK ME A LITTLE BIT TO GET IT
ALL DONE!

HERE ARE THE ORIGINAL PIECES
BEFORE...

1 . IKEA TV STAND WHICH I WAS GOING TO GET RID OF AS I WASNT USING IT

I HAD TO TAKE OFF THE WHEELS AND

REPLACE WITH LEGS THAT I FOUND

AT HOME DEPOT.

2. A WHITE SHELF WHICH HAD BEEN GIVEN TO ME

 3. A OLD WOOD SHUTTER WHICH I BOUGHT

AT THE THRIFT STORE 2 FOR $3.99

ALSO I USED SOME OLD COAT HOOKS
WHICH I HAD BORROWED OFF ANOTHER
COAT RACK I HAD WHICH I WASN'T 
USING AND I MADE THE CHALKBOARD
TAGS OUT OF SOME OLD 
SCRAPS OF WOOD 

AND HERE IT IS

THE LIGHTING IS NOT THE GREATEST DOWNSTAIRS

IN MY HOME SO I TRIED TO GET THE

BEST PICTURES I COULD

IM HAPPY THE WAY IT TURNED OUT

REALLY ADDED SOMETHING

TO THIS AREA OF UNUSED SPACE.

AND I REPURPOSED THINGS I WAS NOT USING WIN, WIN.
