For several years, I had a group of nesting planter boxes on my front porch. I thought if I put them there, I’d figure out a use for them (other than plants or herbs). That wasn’t such a great idea. They sat there & weathered. After they got a particularly wet soaking, I brought them in the house to dry out & decided I needed to do something with them. When I looked at the front of each planter box, I realized they had these very kitschy phrases on the front of each box & it was these phrases I decided to highlight. in this case, the phrase was Rosemary for Faithfulness. Rather than clutter up this wonderful phrase, I decided to highlight it. I put a border around the phrase & went to paint that border in a rosemary color. What a surprise. Rosemary is actually a green, not a rose color. Who knew? As a result, I decided to paint the border the phrase my own version of rosemary & then put a real rosemary accent on the bottom of the piece. All the framing & wood for this piece came from a local salvage store & was stained a different color. This is the perfect gift for someone named Rosemary, or for someone who just like the phrase that was on the planter box. Rosemary For Faithfulness Wall Art, 3-D Recycled Materials Art
