Hi I'm Kindra from At Home With K. I'm so excited to be guest posting over here at House of Grace!

Today I'll be showing you a fun and easy project that you can whip up in no time!

I love all the wood plank frames that I have been seeing all over the Internet. But they can be quite pricey! Some over $50! Ouch. So I thought I would make my own for next to nothing.

I cut 3 equal length 1x3's that I already had in my wood stash. Before I assembled the frame, I went ahead and painted them the colors of my choice. I used cream and seaside.

After they were dry, I attached all 3 pieces from the back with 2 pieces of lathe. I screwed them into each board to properly secure.

I sanded down the edges and all over for the nice distressed look. I then applied Early American MinWax Stain to richin' up the color a little.

I painted a clothespin black then I applied a small piece of scrapbook paper to the front with modge podge. When it was dry, I sanded the edges and used some ink to darken the edges.

I then attached a clothespin to the middle piece of plank with a screw. There was already a hole in the actual clothespin. If you find that difficult, then Gorilla Glue will work good, too.
