Well, it turns out that I had, last.
Then we drilled a hole through the center and added a lamp kit..The base is just two pieces of scrap MDF glued together, then cut into the shape of home plate and painted white.
Sometimes Chris has good ideas..Here you can see we ran into some problems.The long drill bit that we used bent while it was in the middle of the bat and jumped out the side.
It actually worked out fine though because it wasn’t in too bad of a spot and we were able to just use that for the cord.We did, however, lose the ability to have all the lettering on the bat on the front of the lamp..
I had that little problems solved in about 5 minutes.
I just ran to the computer and used my favorite.Trends come and go, but making these items yourself can make them a lot more cost-effective, especially if you think you might end up taking them down in a few months.
A couple of years ago, bird-themed everything was the hottest look around.I’d feel pretty bad now if I was over it and I’d spent $200 on a piece of birdie wall art.
Don’t let that scare you away from playing with trends though, just DIY it!.And while you’re at it, make those DIY projects extra big!
