Vintage Yardstick Message Center

My project today is a simple one...

perfect for a desk cubicle or in a small entryway.

I began with 1/2 of a vintage yardstick.


I added pieces to this message center as I went, anchoring them to the yardstick with old pieces of hinges. 

The hinges act as washers for the screws and give this memo holder a little vintage industrial bling.

a vintage knob as a hook to hang keys, and a large clip to hold a note pad.

Two sawtoothed hangers on the back make it easy to hang it wherever you may need a little message center.

This message center lasted exactly 1 day in my shop before someone came and snatched it up.

So I made 3 more,
they are easy and inexpensive to make and look adorable!
