Farmhouse Projects

This time of year, I am super busy at work with fundraisers and dinner auctions.  This weekend I worked on Saturday and only had Sunday to do everything I need to do on the weekends plus any other special projects.  Today I was very productive and even found time to make a new sign for my living room!
This is a project I have been wanting to do for a long time.  I picked out the perfect piece of wood and used my metal stencils for the lettering.  I painted them in with acrylic paint and sanded it to get the perfect rustic look.  I hung it above my bay window in my living room and I love it.  A simple farmhouse project that makes a big impact! 
Another fun project that I did was this really fun farmhouse style tray.  I held a fundraiser Craft 'n Sip at work and this was the project that we made.  We stained the round, put on the vinyl and added the handles.  It was a fun night and we raised some money for our Staff Association. 
It was a lot of work for me to prep everything for the event, but it was worth it.  Here is a picture of some of the ladies that attended.  We had a lot of fun and want to do it again! 
Now I need to decide if I am going to hang this tray up somewhere or use it as a tray...I am loving these farmhouse projects so much!

These are absolutely precious! I'm originally from Southern California and am now in Texas and trying to turn over our decor from modern to farmhouse. It is a slow and awkward transition, but things like this get me inspired to push forward! Thanks for sharing with Make It Pretty Monday!
