I took apart an old door that was given to me. I love making unique signs, and I knew the panels on the door would make great signs. The paint was chippy already, so all I had to do was sand it down and do the wording.
This panel lent itself to serving as a rack.
Since I chose the saying "Home of the Brave", I thought these rusty stars and nails would be perfect. I did the lettering with my new brown Sharpie Paint marker.

I stained it with dark walnut color stain, and it brought out all the cracks and crevices.
I am so thankful for all the men that have served my country, so that I can enjoy the freedoms I still have.
How lucky to find a door panel with such great patina. A wonderful tribute to those who serve.
