Hi,
Just found your site and really like how you are informative and to the point.y husband and I have bought a farm that came with a run down, old house on it and a huge barn….a huge score for people like you and I… Ok to my point…I found a old ( talking OLD) wooden fence gate in the back of barn burried in foot of Lord knows what and I rescued it.. . it’s in really rough shape but I want to persevere it….just not sure how…can you give me some pointers? I will send a pic so u can see what my husband just looked at and shook his head, then walked away.. Ha..I need a good wood preserver….and?????
Thank you for your time and your showing your work!

Angie,

I am totally in love with your new barn gate wall decor! The chippy blue paint reminds me of some easy 2×4 benches I made from my daughter’s old deck to use on her new deck. There’s something about the history in reclaimed wood that makes me smile and wonder what stories it could tell.

Thanks for sharing a great tutorial, and I LOVE the hint about the painter’s tape-I am so math challenged!
