Okay, I've needed something over my bed for a while now and I've been having a hard time. I bought about 5 mirrors from Home Goods that all got returned and a couple of frames that were returned too. Home Goods, by the way, is one of my favorite stores to find great inexpensive home furnishings!
Anyway, I finally remembered about the wooden planked wall that came down from our garage and I had told Adam we needed to keep it because I would find something great to use it for later. Well, it's been leaning behind the wall to our garage thru rain and shine for 6 months now and part of it's finally being used!
It took Adam about two seconds to hammer two planks off the other boards and then he bent the rusty nails back so I wouldn't stab myself (he's so sweet).
I got these knobs from the sales bin at Anthropologie... now, I know what you're thinking, Anthropologie is way too expensive... yes, it is... but, if you make it a point to stop by every so often you can get great home decorating ideas and great bargains in their sale section. I got a fantastic lamp shade there that was regular $200 for $16 bucks once! I also scored a rug from their dumpster.. yes, their dumpster... if you have access to where they throw their trash it's worth checking out. They were trowing it away because it had grommets punched thru the corners from hanging it on a wall. The girl had just leaned it against the dumpster so I got it for FREE!
I actually documented this for a tutorial but my memory card got ruined so I will just have to explain. Just drill some holes and screw the knobs in, then attach picture hanging hooks on the back and hang on the wall!
Thanks for looking!
xoxo
