Wood Wall Art

While re-vamping the main floor of our house is fun and I love seeing the finished product, my walls are a little bare and my vision doesn't seem to match anything that is in the stores. So it was time to create something for this very bare wall, I headed to the good old internet for inspiration and came across this blog post from 
Shanty 2 Chic and I was inspired. 


I wanted to add a variety of colors to mine so stained some and then I painted some as well.  I think the hardest part of this project was finding 1x3's for the frame really who would have thought 3 local hardware stores and none of them had it.  I was lucky that I had some old barn wood stashed away that worked perfectly for this.  


And the search is on to get my other walls filled up with artwork.
