Two Signs

I finished a couple of little sign projects today. The first one was made from a unique old piece of trim that I found at an architectural salvage shop. I loved the knothole in the middle of it!

Hmmm… I think I like it on my bookcase!

The second sign is another one made from a recycled cupboard door. I needed to replace the one I sold at the Spring Market (it wasn’t even for sale…but I sold it anyway)!

This one is a little smaller than the original one, but I like the door better!

These pieces will appear at Bella’s Vintage Market at Wheeler Farms (Salt Lake City) on July 9! “Like” them on Facebook for $1 off admission.

Linking up to these great parties here.

Love these signs. Your photo skills are amazing. The images are so rich and interesting. I haven't gotten into the sign thing yet. I am always drawn to them. Probably should give it a try. Have a great rest of your weekend!

I love your signs (and your blog name too!) They are great! I actually have two cupboard doors I bought at Habitat Restore just sitting around. What an inspiration your signs are - they are now next on my list!

I love these signs! Do you handpaint the letters? The letters on the few signs I've made are not nearly at nice! I love how you used a cabinet door...very nice!

Love the door! I've got two of them leftover from a project, you've inspired me to make them into signs! Visiting from Coastal Charm...
