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!
