Door/Hall Tree

I love a quick project!

After painting my front entry chevron wood floor 

I decided that I needed to have a hall tree.

I had an old door outside in the barn waiting to be used.

I drug it in.

BOY WAS IT HEAVY!

Then cleaned it up and propped it up behind the bench.

I wanted to add a shelf/ledge to the top.

A grabbed a 2X6 for the top

and a leftover piece of window trim to dress up the front.

I just used leftover primer to paint them.

I also picked up some wooden shaker pegs

from the local lumber yard for less than $2 for a set f 2.

Then I had to address the empty window hole.

I had a lot of ideas {chalk board, cork board, chicken wire, etc.}

But I ended up going with simply hanging a picture over the hole.

I framed up some license plates we found in the barn.

(I hung it with 2 nails them a added sticky tack on the all sides to keep is very stable.

I came together in one day and it is the perfect piece!
