Driftwood House Number Marker
By Homeroad on Aug 05, 2012
Imagine if you will, a 50 something, grown man
rolling a 3' high, 100+ lb. driftwood stump
down the beach...
I told my husband I had a good idea for it,
he must have liked my idea or he never would have lugged this huge thing home....
He said "you know I could have lifted it onto my shoulder in my younger days"...
It's ok honey, rolling works.
Anyway...
Now that it made it's way into my garage,
I can work some magic on it...
I taped off 2 areas to paint stripes...
I gave it a black stripe around the center
and painted the top white...
This flat area is what inspired me...
I cut out the number 12 for
my house number...
I gave the back of the stencil a spritz of
spray adhesive...
and stuck the number to the stump.
I used black paint to stencil in the number.
I threw it up onto my shoulder
and moved my
new buoy stump out to the yard...
(no, only kidding!)
My husband loves it so I guess it was worth
rolling it all the way down the beach.
