Today when I took the piece off the piano it was pretty heavy. I don’t like hanging heavy stuff. I took the back layer of wood off. I realized the nails might be easier to remove now.
Then I came up with a simpler solution!
I love my table saw….it just isn’t always convenient to pull out to use quick, due to my garage space. Not so beautiful….
(I have to share with the boys – I’m keeping that in mind for the future house.)
-no big deal.
I sanded the edges again and turned the thing over. Well….look at that?
The back looked pretty. I am going to use it!
While the wood piece sat on the center of the table I used a level from the nail in the wall stud to the top of the wood. That is where I put the D rings (the blurry picture).
Two uses for one piece of junky wood. I am proud.
The heart twinkle lights are from Target – $3. The wreath and metal heart are from
The Nosey Goose.
I like the lighter wood and the distressed black on the foyer table.
Happy Valentine’s Day decorating!

Sweet ensemble of items! Love the heart!
Looks fabulous, love that you could flip the wood and have a completely different look. The way you decorated it with the wreath and heart really looks beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Mary
Hey Brave Girl! You are amazing… my hubby hides the power tools from me. Perhaps it is time to purchase my own!? LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that you show it is OK… actually down right awesome … to mix up finishes. The outcome is perfection. xoxo Jules
You are one handy lady! A power saw?! They scare me! Anyway, I just love what you did here, the lights are a great idea. As always, everything looks natural and pretty. I don't decorate much for Valentine's Day either but I would if I had your creativity! :)XO,Jane
So pretty! I love that little white heart!
You are so clever! A two for one deal! I have GOT to learn to do that sort of stuff myself. It's usually not worth it when I have to get the hubby involved. Anywho…..I love both sides of your project!
Looks great! LOVE that you can use both sides…a \”twofer\” 🙂
I love this!
You go girl!! That looks beautiful!!
Wow Holly, just beautiful!
Oh Holly. You inspire me so. I was on your blog over the weekend and before you know it, I was asking the Mr to make a rough rustic ladder. See my last blog post.HUGS. Gee
