Birds, Quotes, and Vintage Knob Wall Plaque
I purchased 4 adorable bird plagues with quotes that I was impressed with from the Dollar Tree. Honestly sometimes I can't believe the items you can find there. A lot is just what you expect for a $1.00 but these bird plagues even had an easel to stand them up for display. I knew I wanted to create something with these, I just loved the birds and quotes!
I wanted to put them on barn wood or rustic wood scraps, but a check in my wood pile did not give me the length I wanted! Off to my second wood pile "Home Depot" and checked out their fence panels. Cedar was on sale for $1.18 a panel, now how can you not try that?
Below, I took some close ups to help read the quotes. My finished wall plaque is on the bottom of the page!

| I just stained the cedar and painted it lightly with a grey paint I had. You don't even know about my paint stash! Hopefully it will not get to be like my quilt fabric stash? I took off the easels and just wood glued the bird plagues on, easy! Something else needed to be done so I added a wonderful vintage door knob! I placed my wall plaque by the slider going out to the backyard, where I do feed and bird watch! Love watching the seasonal birds we get! Indoor Kitty likes watching too! |

| These wood pieces were from my stash, but were not long enough, just wanted to show the bird plagues before I tore off the easel stands. |

| Not a fantastic picture, just could not get a good shot, could it be the photographer, hum! Take care, Marilyn |
