What is useless to one person might be valuable to another.
The beginning stages
Outdoor sign [Shop located in Los Olivos]
It may not look like much now but you'll have to return for the end results... you'll be astonished I promise!

In other words I'm going to take this unique piece [with its' linear lines and 3 dimensional moldings] and transform it into a beautiful sign that can be used indoors or outdoors. And these are the steps I will take:
1. Paint until thoroughly covered.
2. Slightly sand lines, corners and moldings to give the piece an aged appearance.

Until next time happy making... trash into treasure!
