When I saw this wooden holder in a thrift store, I knew it still had life in it, so I brought it home.

It is about 6 inches high.  I sanded it to smooth out the rough edges and primed it.  Then I took craft turquoise paint and gave it several coats.  I glazed it as well.  Here it is.

It wasn’t quite what I wanted so I lightly sanded it all over and then distressed the edges.  Now I really like it.

I decided to use my Cricut to add some words so when it is standing empty, there is a fun reminder.

It can be a recipe holder or a fun way to display a photo.

I have listed this for sale. I really enjoy painting wood and have several projects just waiting for me to complete.  Will share as I get them done.
