Repurposed Christmas Photo Display
Sometimes even if I don't need it, I buy it on clearance!
That was the story with this galvanized metal shelf I bought for 80% off. It was 6 bucks, I couldn't leave it there.
I was hoping to put it in my newly renovated bathroom but it just didn't fit.
So I repurposed it.
This shelf had a beautiful rustic wooden top so easily unscrewed it and turned it into a sign.
That part was easy!
I used the hot cocoa stencil from Old Sign Stencils.
You can purchase this stencil HERE and use it all holiday season.
The stencil can be configured in different ways by using all or just part of the stencil like I did on these wooden star ornaments.
The sign looks amazing but even better than that was the rest of this repurposed project...
the metal base.
How excited was I to discover that it was magnetic!
How cool is that?!
It sits on the table or hangs on the wall and holds small photos and tags.
I made Scrabble magnets and attached a couple of my favorite vintage photos and tags. It sold in minutes.
Sometimes you just have to think outside of the box
when it comes to DIY projects.
I could have returned the shelf and gotten my $6 back
but I ended up selling the sign and the photo display
and making a lot more.
