Scrap Wood Mirror DIY

Being a full-time DIYer, I end up with tons of scrap wood in every shape and size.  Also being a bit of a hoarder, I pick up scrap wood whenever I see it for future projects!  This scrap wood mirror started off as slats for a bed frame and ended up being a lovely entry mirror on my front porch!  Use what you have, upcycle what you can and don't be afraid to turn trash into treasure!  Now get out there and MAKE YOUR MARK!

My house is painted a gorgeous green and this mirror worked perfectly with it!

I almost didn't want to paint it, but I LOVE color!

Bottle Cap Sacred Hearts

I love visiting and shopping in Mexico...LOVE IT!  The color, the weather, the art...it all sings to my heart.  Since my yearly trip to Puerto Vallarta was cancelled, I had to create my own Mexican art to feed my soul.  What I love about this project is that it's just scrap wood and bottle caps.  I printed out the images on my computer, added a little glitter and, for a minute, felt like things were right in the world.  Do what you can to stay sane during this crazy time, sweet friends, and 

always Make Your Mark!

These have my heart!

Loteria and Frida images were my choice, but change it up if you want!

A Dremel is the perfect carving tool!

Scrap Wood Robots

I do most of the repairs around my house, and as you know I always keep the scraps of everything from fabric & paper to wood and tin.  When the scrap boxes start to overflow, it's time to use them for a project like these funky little robots! A little glue, paint and some leftover bits from my junk drawers and BOOM!  There are no rules other than to try to give them the cutest faces possible.  Here's a secret, BIG eyes are the key!  Thank you very mucho Mr. Roboto and don't forget to 

Make Your Mark, OK!

Hanging out with the gang!

We ARE smiling!
