Paint Your Wagon-DIY
October 10, 2012
sales but nothing really caught my eye. So you know the old saying
"Necessity is the Mother of Invention."
Bead board, nail gun, spray paint and presto!
She is a simple wagon but packs a cute little punch. I tucked her
into our front flowerbed and placed a few pumpkins here and there.
I think my little red wagon adds just the right amount of color and
festivity!

We used bead board for the construction of the wagon.

| Two sides of Bead Board Attached to the Rectangle Frame |
 |
| All Four Sides Nailed onto Rectangle Frame |
 |
| Two boards nailed onto bottom of Frame for Future Wheels |

| Wheels cut from a 1x6 piece of wood cut in 5 1/2 inch circles |
 |
| Wheels painted with Black Spray Paint |

| Festive Red Wagon Fall Display |
I am thrilled with my little red wagon! She is just the right size and
has truly brought a touch of a rocky mountain Fall to my Texas
yard!
Just wondering what you might be doing in your corner of the
world for your Fall display?

ReplyDeleteYour wagon is adorable, and I am very impressed with your skills as a handyman! I sure hope you used this to decorate at Christmas, too. I'm picturing lots of pine boughs spilling out of it!

WOW! It's a great idea. As a DIY'er, I appreciate your work. A few day's ago, I had found some info about wagon paint idea via tools idea blog but that resource can't make me happy, but now I find my needy info. Really thank you so much.
