    Metal Projects

    By Stacy 112 Comments

    My blogging friend Laura from Finding Home Farms is tall, sassy and one of the kindest people I have ever met. She is also ridiculously talented. Her husband recently quit his corporate job to pursue his passion and they now have a thriving maple syrup business. It is really an inspiring story. You can read about it here. I first met her in NYC at an event and fell in love with her fun loving spirit.

    She recently came out with a book called DIY Rustic Modern Metal Crafts (affiliate) that is full of metal projects. It is beautiful!

     

    Metal-Craft-Book

     

    It is filled with 35 tutorials and bright photos.

    Some of them are super simple like this fun stand and all the projects have clear, easy to follow steps.

    And I adore this planter for the window sill!

    I think this wreath is my favorite though. I have never seen anything like it!

      I was looking for a weekend project to occupy me during this long Minnesota winter. This wreath is the perfect vintage/antique look I love. I'll be decorating for quite a few barn weddings this summer, and I will use this wreath as a fun prop.

      Oh my gosh, Stacy, I LOVE the ideas in this book! Especially, the metal wreath - what fun that would be to make :). Thank you for having the contest and making it so easy to enter. I'm getting real tired of all the contests that other bloggers promote where you have to enter on every social media site and like everything on Facebook. I just don't have the time for all that. This, on the other hand, was a joy to enter :) :).
