I gathered
separated
cleaned
and dismantled with a plan.
Hubby found the perfect board in the barn behind our lumber stack. It was a piece of Dad's old cattle salt trough. I used a wire brush to remove the saw dust from years of exposure to salt while Hubby used his grinder to remove the brads on the old television legs.
The wood grain was beautiful.
A wire brush was used to clean all. No paint but I can add that later if I want. What is it? I did all that just to have a place to throw my shoes when I come in muddy and dirty from outside.
I attached the old television legs for boot holders
The dirt stops here.
I just need to clean the footwear.

You should be on TV showing people how to recycle. What a great idea to re-use. Perfect boot tree, eh. Love this.
Well look at you, you clever girl ;o) That is SO neat - I love it!
Very clever! Now I hope you're putting this together in a book, because this is what revive, reuse and renew is all about! You go girl!
perfect up cycle if I ever saw one... i had not idea what you were creating as we went along the story and cool idea using those legs for boot holders...
That is really clever! You'd pay fifty bucks to buy something like that in the store.
Clever . . . amazing you are!
Perfect! I love it.
Very clever. I have more dirty shoes this time of the year than ever. Every time I hit the garden I come back muddy. My poor washing machine is always washing shoes:)
