Foot Board Turned Coat Rack

This was just a really fun project.   I found this twin foot board at an estate sale.

This is the only before picture I have.  See it leaning against the wall?  It was the typical yellow cream most of these pieces have.

I painted it French Gray and  left the gold details, added hooks from Hobby Lobby that were painted white and antiqued, and then made the "DREAM" banner.

To make the banner, I used wooden letters from Jo Ann's.  I spray painted the edges gold to match the detailing on the foot board.  Next I traced around the letters on antique sheet music, cut out and applied with decoupage medium.  Finally the letters were hot glued on a piece of twine.

For some reason, nothing I had looked good hanging on the hooks.  So I decided to show some of the frames I had just painted.  Decorator's block? Maybe.

Anyway, I really love how this turned out and it has already been taken to the Antique Mall.
