At present we are renovating and old old house and I was inspired to make this 'welcome' sign out of the old weatherboards. We are renovating a very old house and have removed the external walls, also discovered a few old bolts and found this chain and old door bell to use. I painted up some new wooden letters and distressed them with sandpaper and paint. and as I ponder what I've done so far I'm sure there will be some more 'decorations' added. It's fair from a 'pretty' item but as a reminder of the old type of house I think it is perfect. Thanks for taking a peek
Great recycled sign Robyn, love the addition of the bell, Cathy x
