DIY Chevron Rod Iron Wall Hanging

I am a little slow.  But I finally decided I like Chevron.  I knew I wanted to make something with a chevron pattern and this is what I came up with.

I cut three 1x6 boards to 17" long.  Then attached them with pocket holes.

I used a square to tape off my pattern.

I went through with a razor blade to cut out the chevron pattern.


Then I painted my three different colors.


To attach the decorative rod iron we set it on to decide where it would sit.  Then marked with a pencil where we would drill holes to wire it on.





I am bummed that the green paint bleed a little bit and wished I would have centered the chevron more.  But I did better on the next one that I did, which I will be showing you soon!

Never miss a new post!
