With Canada Day fast approaching I wanted to share with you the Canada Day Flag that
I made from left over pine ceiling slats.
My daughter showed me a wooden flag that she had just purchased and I
knew I had the supplies on hand to make my own.
So I gathered up my supplies and went to work.
My flag measures 17" x 12 "
I glued 4 of the pine slats together
Made a stencil of a Maple Leaf
Since the pine was already painted I only had to add the red paint to the sides and then stencil
on the Maple Leaf
Once it dried I gave it a light sanding to make it look worn and weathered.
Then used good old paste wax to give it a finished look.
Added the stake and gave it a light paint of red .
The cost was $0. Had all the supplies on hand.
Thanks for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteLove it! I've made these in the past and sold them in my booth. Don't know why I didn't get around to it this year. Oh yeah, June has been incredibly busy..
