Bless Our Home Coat Hook

I love repurposing things--taking something that has lost its function or use and is on the way to the dump and creating something new with it.

That was the case with this Bless Our Home coat hook.

In its former life, it was the drop leaf section of an old farmhouse table.  But the table was dilapidated and beyond repair.  It was a solid wood table, originally painted kelly green.

    1. Thanks Linda! I originally thought I would curve the lettering with the tabletop curve, but decided it looked better straight.
