Decorating with old fishing gear is fun, creative and inexpensive. It's pretty easy to find unique fishing gear as decorative items used. Here are a few interesting ideas for your fishing decor projects.
First, you need fishing gear. My husband is not the fisherman in our family, that's me. So it is easy for me, lures old fishing village that have blunted the hook and gives me a good excuse to buy more to save! Robbers have a tendency to stop floating after a few blows to theRocks along the coast, and makes it unusable for the fisherman, but a great find for the decorator too. If you confiscate gear from hubby's tackle box remember you now know what he will receive for the next holiday or special occasion!
Yard sales and estate sales are for the purchase of inexpensive, used fishing equipment for your great decorating projects. Yard sales are less risky than hubby's tackle box. Keep an eye out for used fishing nets, Poland, lures, robbers, metal stringers and otherCorridor.
The last thing you want is your fishing decor to smell like fish. Be sure to clean everything very carefully and thoroughly. I use alcohol lures, predators and so on. Good detergent and bleach for nets. Vinegar and lemon juice also work well.
What kind of decorations you can do with your accumulated treasures? This is where the fun really begins, let your imagination shine. Here are just a few ideas to get you started. Minnow buckets make good catch all containers forBedrooms, childrens rooms and bathrooms for items such as pens, hair-do fathers, brushes and combs, etc. If you are really smart, they can be turned into lamps. Buy a lamp lights in the DIY or inexpensive narrow based lamps that fit into the upper opening of the minnow bucket.
Share your own fishing prey from long flexible twigs, or boat line saining networks. Make sure you remove either the hook lures and replace with twisted wire shaped like hooks or snip the points with heavyWire cutters. I have brought pieces of cork on the ends of each point, hook hunted look like! From the twigs I randomly tie robber and lures with mono filament (fishing line). I like to use it cafe curtains with curtain clips on these garlands, as they hang below the robbers and lures. Curtains with the long tabs great as well.
Old fishing rods from yard sales are very cheap and great curtain rods. I especially like the cane poles because they are too easily cut to Size.
Another idea is to hot glue, and attracts all predators on an old lamp base. I think the more the better about this whole project covering the base. Of course the lamp size and your tastes are making a difference. If there is a very large lamp or you just do not have enough bait and robbers, you can hot glue solid bands, about 2 cm wide, filling the hemp rope or cord into larger areas.
A mobile, how to have fun with babies room and add an interesting art form to your fishing> Decor. I prefer to hang in front of the gear at different levels instead of all one length. I, too, twigs or sticks for these projects "cross" to hang the bait, tie, etc., from predators and fishing line, everything.
Old wooden picture frames with the glass removed make inexpensive picture boxes. Line a piece of thin cardboard with brown, brown or dark green felt. You can also print the fishing stuff. Put this covered cardboard in the frame as a picture and hot glueTheir treasures on the felt. A good trick is to use groups of three. Three lures, one under the other in one corner, three robbers, side by side for the top row, three hand rolls in a row at the bottom for weight and one old metal stringer above the reels.
Things I do not moves yet tried, but on my list of fishing lures with the hooks to create a cabinet handles, predators or bait for lighting, fishing net loot from around the bathroom mirror and drift wood with fishing geara topic of conversation.
Create your own fishing decor is fun, inexpensive and, above all, you have unique decorations for your home or cabin. Start collecting old fishing gear and let your imagination.
