Laundry Room Pipe Rack With Hanger & Metal Heart

Laundry Room Rack with Hanger, I added a 1" pipe to a 1" flange which you can find in the plumbing dept. at your local hardware store
I started out by printing letters spelling out "Laundry" in Roman Numeral font and placed them downward
I used a Square to ensure I had the lettering level
I purchased a package of Carbon Paper for only $4.00 at Staples which I placed under my printed lettering using a pencil, you can also use a red pen so you know where you have outlined your text
It transferred perfectly onto my piece of wood …. you can also re-use the carbon paper for other projects
I used a "Fine Point" Marker to outline the letters as it allowed me to draw straight lines and also used a ruler to make my lines straight
After I outlined the lettering with Fine Point marker I then used a fine paint brush to colour it in with black paint. Any craft paint works great, also from dollar store
I purchased a hanger from dollar store, painting it black and sanded the edges to make it look aged
Here is my creation, you an add hanger or other embellishments
I just bought a wooded hanger from dollar store, painted it black and sanded the edges to make it look aged and added a Metal heart which I purchased from Zulily.com …. I'm very happy with the results. I have seen these signs sold on Etsy and our local Buy & Sell and I have to say that they don't charge enough as it does take some time to make. I was surprised at the time it took but was fun to create
Enjoyed the project?

Have a question about this project?
How did you age the wood?
Where did you get the lettering?
You indicates you used a piece of 1 x 5 pine board. It looks like a piece of fencing. Do you think a piece of fencing could also be used?
