Reclaimed wood art for my daughters

January 8, 2015 by Erin Heaton

Art made with reclaimed wood trims, rulers, and other leftovers.

I did not make very many gifts for the holidays this year, but I did manage to squeak in a couple of special pieces for my daughters. Last year, I got caught up in making these works from broken picture frames, wood scraps, old rulers, etc. So naturally, I made a couple of special ones just for them. They fit together as two halves of a whole. A lot of the materials came from the workshops of Dan’s grandpa and my grandpa, but I filled in with scraps of trim. I had been saving those flowers (vintage push-pins maybe?) for a project such as this. Elise loves red, so hers is on the left.
