Upcycled Old Wooden Fence Boards 1


Crafts made from  discarded objects is so much fun. Being creative and taking something that once was this and making it that, is called upcycled. One of my favorite things to upcycle is old wooden fence boards. Whenever I see fencing on the side of the road, I want to haul it away (I just don’t have the room for it)! There are so many things that you can create with wooden fence boards; tables, shelves, dressers, signs etc. I’ve upcycled old wooden fence boards to create a hanging plaque.
