Finn's Wall Hangings

We are working away in preparation for Finn's arrival!  Our list is slowly getting smaller.  Since Finn is taking over Lilly's room we decided to have the kids do some sharing.  For the wall hangings, we took apart Lilly's initial wall hangings (Lilly Elizabeth) so we could still use the white boards we had weathered.  



 We cut three pieces of burlap into a squares.  


 We doubled stitched the back of the burlap to give the edges a nice finish.


 Mitch drilled holes into the corners of the board and punched holes into the corners of the burlap.

Next, we put all the pieces together.  We are using heavy washers and bolts to secure the burlap to the boards.  Think that's manly enough for Finn??


 Mitch used wire to attach the new letters for Finn's initials.  


Here they are all finished and ready for Finnegan Thomas Longtin's arrival!
