This
week for the Trash to Treasure project I decided to make some kitchen
faucets. I figured it would go right along with the big project we
are working on in the Sunday videos.
This
is a super easy way to make a faucet and I had all the materials on
hand.
For
the base I am just using a skinny stick. I love the size of these
sticks, they come in handy for so many projects. I did find that
making the hole in the stick before cutting it to length worked the
best. It had a tendency to split if I tried to make the hole after I
cut it to length.
I
just used a push pin to make the hole. I didn't have a drill bit
small enough. We want the hole to be barely big enough to get the
piece of paper clip into. It really needs to be a tight fit.
I
used super glue for all assembly this week.
The
paint I used was a metallic spray paint from Krylon in Nickel it has
a satin finish.
For
the handles I used some small beads.
This
is a super easy and quick project and I love how it looks finished.
