wood art


Inspired by Pottery Barn's Painted Piece Woodwork and a replica Sammy's dad made for her, my Dad, Eric and I decided to make our own.


I made up the design on an Excel spreadsheet.  Each square represented a square inch.  We decided to make it 36 inches by 48 inches.  My sweet dad cut out all 178 pieces!  What a great daddy I have!


Eric framed it up and painted all the pieces brown.


I hand painted and distressed each piece.  It was so fun to put it all together and make my own wooden quilt!


Eric and I are still debating on if we want to frame it or leave it unframed. We are both really happy with it and it definitely adds some color to our living room!
