which I then went through and scavenged what I could. I managed to save quite a few long pieces of the original old wood siding. After pounding out the old nails and scrubbing 100+ years of dirt off, it had the perfect chippy patina! I cut one of the long pieces into an arrow shape and then stenciled my quote “Choose You This Day” using black paint onto the sign. Then I drilled two holes in the top so that I could hang the sign from my ladder with thick jute rope.
Next was convincing Hubby he had to hang this for me.
Good thing he is tall and lanky – he could just barely reach without needing any extra assistance!

I love my rustic with a quote that keeps me one track!
