Here is my inspiration pic...
First, I got the beadboard from my local Ace Hardware and cut it to 2'x2.5'. I also cut a 2'x2.5'
piece of plywood for strength and used Liquid Nails to secure the 2 boards together.
Next, my grandpa and I cut the pegs on the band saw and put the holes in the board.
I painted the pegs and used Liquid Nails to secure them into their holes.
Then, I did some sanding on the edges of the board and the pegs, stained the sanded parts with my handy-dandy Stain Marker, and went over both the board and pegs with a thin coat of glaze.
Last, I screwed 4 large screws through the board and into the wall on the 4 corners to hang it.
Rolling Pin Collection: I started out with the one with red handles and the one with
light teal handles. I believe they were both my great-grandmother's. My grandmother
gave me the marble one (very heavy) which I love. I bought the hand-carved one on the
top and the big one on the very bottom (which I was told is very old).
I am now a lover of old rolling pins and my collection has grown to 11...
