Christmas in July - Repurposed Rustic Wood Slices

It’s the last Wednesday for our Christmas in July Blog Hop. I am hosting this blog hop with a group of talented bloggers and we have been bringing all sorts of Christmas ideas your way. We know you have been following along and adding your Christmas projects because well, my post is down to there full. And that makes me very happy. A few weeks ago I repurposed a broken mirror. And last week I repurposed Barbie Paddles that belonged to my daughters. This week I am going back to my archives to show you an older project that I did in the early days of my blogging, my repurposed rustic wood slices.

Είναι Τετάρτη και εχουμε φτάσει στο τέλος των Χριστούγεννα τον Ιούλιο, Blog Hop. Φιλοξενώ αυτό το blog hop με μια ομάδα ταλαντούχες bloggers και σας εχουμε παρουσιάσει όλα τα είδη για τα Χριστούγεννα. Ξέρουμε ότι μας έχετε ακολουθήσει και προσθέσατε τα έργα σας επιδίδει εχει γεμίσει η ανάρτηση μου και με χαροποιεί πάρα πολυ!. Πριν λεγες εβδομαδες αναδιαμόρφωσα ένα σπασμένο καθρέφτη. Την περασμένη εβδομάδα μεταμόρφωσα τις Barbie ρακέτες. Αυτή την εβδομάδα θα πάω πίσω στο αρχείο μου να σας δείξω ένα παλαιότερο έργο που έκανα κατά τις πρώτες ημέρες του blogging, τις ρουστίκ φέτες ξύλου.

You may have noticed in my Christmas in July projects, I am not satisfied with just showing you a Christmas post. I like to squeeze all the mileage I can out of a project and always try to repurpose them so that they can be used all year long.

Μπορεί να έχετε παρατηρήσει στα Χριστούγεννα τον Ιούλιο, δεν είμαι ικανοποιημένη να σας δείχνω μια ανάρτηση Χριστουγέννων. Πρέπει ένα έργο να επαναπροσδιορίζετε, έτσι ώστε να μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί όλο το χρόνο.

Repurposed Wood slices Christmas in July www.theboondocksblog.com

These wood slices are outlined using Christmas cookie cutters and then just painted over with black paint. I then hung them on the wall with twine. Very simple and very effective. But I could not leave them alone, I had to repurpose them for year long use. Find out the details here.

Αυτές οι φέτες του ξύλου περιγράφονται χρησιμοποιώντας τα Χριστούγεννα κοφτικά εργαλεία γλυκών. Στη συνέχεια τους κρέμασα στον τοίχο με σπάγγο. Πολύ απλό και πολύ αποτελεσματικό. Αλλά δεν μπορούσα να τα αφήσω έτσι, θα έπρεπε να τα χρησιμοποιήσετε και για όλο το χρόνο. Θα βρείτε τις λεπτομέρειες εδώ.

I am a huge fan of wood slices, there are so many cool things you can do with them. And these turned out awesome. I love how they are using wood slices for candle sticks, cake stands, risers for decor. Love them. Our home is more clean and streamlined, but I love accenting with wood slices, rustic pieces and burlap. These would fit right in!

Mary

I too love them Nikki and have had these since before I started blogging. They bring so much rustic goodness to my home decor.

I love the idea of using a cookie cutter as a template. Great idea, Mary! Your ornaments look great! I had a look at how you repuposed them to use year round, too. Wonderful idea!

I have them displayed in the stairwell now, all year long! Beverly, this is what makes me happy. To not have to hide them.

Laurie

Mary, I love your rustic wood ornaments! Using cookie cutters for the design is genius! Thanks so much for sharing! Pinned to share.

Laurie, better to use templates than to mess it up. I really enjoyed this blog hop, and from the looks of it, so did many other bloggers. :)

Keri

Mary, your wood slice ornaments are awesome!! My favorite part is that they can be used for year round! Another wonderful repurpose!

I liked them so much for Christmas that I didn't want to pack them away so I came up with this idea.

Katrin

I remember those wood slice ornaments from last Christmas Mary and they look great! I am planning on doing something using wood slices for this fall or Christmas coming up, a great reminder!

I really do use them all year long. It's a simple way to add a rustic touch. Oh and looking forward to your slices as well.
