DIY Wall Art Decor With Scrap Wood!

I wanted to make some DIY wall art decor to tie in some of the other home accents in our new apartment space! I still have a lot of leftover wood in my workshop, so I used it to create my #DIY wall art in the shape of a diamond. This was a really fun weekend #woodworking project and was super therapeutic!

I love DIY scrap wood art! Even better when it’s modern and geometric. I’m a math nerd so I enjoy the angle figuring 😅🤓🤓 awesome job Sam!

[@diyhuntress]

Can you please come over and help me with math?

[@pe11entesque]

Honestly, give us more scrap wood projects because I'm in love with this 😍

[@diyhuntress]

Yesss! So many scraps...

[@jessicahites871]

Absolutely love these geometric wall art pieces!!

[@joyfuldesignstudio]

What a satisfying puzzle!

[@diyhuntress]

Ah! I love thinking of this as a puzzle! 😍😍😍

[@dalejones4186]

Hi Sam. I feel creativity is random and non precise. You truly have an artistic talent for this. Great job.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! 🙏🏼

[@Kkuts37]

Oh Dear Huntress, it in not hoarding, It is saving for the right project! Love this, great job!

[@diyhuntress]

Ahaha - I like that much better!

[@hansdegroot8549]

Thanks for making a Friday in the middle of the week. LOL Great project. It turned out very beautifully. You have diamonds in your fingers.

[@diyhuntress]

Ahahah - happy not Friday! I’ll have another video on Friday too!

[@hansdegroot8549]

@@diyhuntress Wow! Two Fridays in one week. Which means: also two weekends and two Mondays. Now I understand where the Beatles' song Eight days a week comes from.

Those look great, Sam. They look like they will complement your decor nicely. Best wishes for your new digs. Stay safe. Bill

Wow! I just stumbled upon your channel because i was looking at WorkShop Tours and stuff related to that. Ive been watching your videos for hours now and im very impressed. Keep doing what you're doing. I love your videos. Super awesome KZbin channel!!!

[@diyhuntress]

Shut up! Really? This just made my WHOLE day! Thank you so much for all of the love! 💕

Oh! Looks so nice! My scrap wood pile will shrink! Thank you for the idea!

Thank you! I’d love to see you make some with your scraps!

These look so great! I'm the least handy person but your projects always make me want to try something haha

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! You totally should! You’d probably make something so rad.

[@Devin292]

Cool. Those look great. I'm sure people have mentioned it, but be careful burning on the cement block. If there is a little not of moisture in it some times it can cause a chunk to blow out. Keep up the good work

[@diyhuntress]

Actually didn’t know this! The flame on this torch is very direct, so it’s only touching the wood. But, good to know. Thanks!

[@inspectorsteve2287]

Those are really cool. Great idea.

First off, I think we all need to join a "SCRAP WOOD ANONYMOUS" group (if it's not a thing, we should probably start it!) Loving the burst of personality at the top of this video - I want more!!!! 😁 Great DIY project girl- who doesn't love a project that requires a blow torch 😎🔥

[@diyhuntress]

Just trying to be as awesome as you! 🙌🏼 Also... if this whole content creation thing doesn’t work out, we totally have a future in running scrap hoarder anonymous meetings. Just saying... 💁🏻‍♀️

Gorgeous, just gorgeous! I wish I can purchase these pieces and also have you make 2 larger ones, without cutting the edges off, for my entryway. I absolutely ❤ it! New sub.

You too!

Great art project. You may want to try Titebond Quick & Thick glue. It's my favorite for interior applications as it speeds up glue time (no affiliation)

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! I’m a huge fan of DAP. Been using them in my shop for years. 😊

[@cody_walters]

Another project that I'll put in my queue. Love your designs. My only issue (around pallet wood) is trying not to damage the wood when removing it from the pallet. I'm someone new to the channel, but a video or write up on your approach would be very interesting! In any case, love this project and will definitely be giving it a shot.

[@diyhuntress]

You’re the coolest! I actually walk through my process in my Pallet Wood Nightstand video, if you haven’t checked that out yet! Can’t wait to see your artwork!

[@cody_walters]

@@diyhuntress Yes...I've been studying that video and blog the last two weeks lol. Almost done with the nightstand. I'd say about 80% of the pallet wood I extracted was usable. Seems like newer pallets are prone to breaking than older ones...or I just need to adopt a different method!

[@WorkbenchWoodworking]

Wow beatifull! This would look great on my wall

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! I’d love to see you make one!

[@beyondtheclassroom6460]

That's a great project. For a video you should go get logs and mill it. I live in your area and I know craigslist is a great way to get wood

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! That would be way fun!

[@ruizd14]

you need a protractor to help you with the angles, cool wall art.

[@diyhuntress]

Funny part is, I totally have a digital angle finder in my shop too... 😂

OMG, that is gorgeous. Do you sell any of your artwork? If so please let me know. I really love these two pieces. You are so talented.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! I’m sorry - I usually don’t. ☹️

[@SteffanHarries]

When you were trimming the excess off, do you think it would be possible to do that on a table saw? I.e.: could something like this be made where all the cuts are made with just a table saw?

[@diyhuntress]

I think it’s possible, but you probably have to have a clean edge on at least one side, if that makes sense!

[@SteffanHarries]

@@diyhuntress I think so! I think it'd be awkward to get right with just a table saw. I need to get more tools 👀

[@SableSunsets]

Very cool 😎 new subscriber here

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! 😍

[@louisvictor3473]

This looks good! If I may, a little idea to make it ~lazier and cheaper~ easier on you on future versions. Cut the scrap into "veneers" first instead of thicker pieces. I am being pretty generous with what I call veneer here, anything from paper thin shavings to several mm that you can cut with scissors, a knife or very few strokes of a hand saw - whatever you're more comfortable producing and working with. Similarly, what you're making veneers from can be as simple (single woods) or as complex (e.g. yosegi) as you want. That way you can also use a thinner backboard (even particle board) and make the artwork lighter.

[@diyhuntress]

Love that idea! Luckily, don’t have to be frugal right now. But, will keep in mind for the future!

[@louisvictor3473]

​@@diyhuntress oh for sure, you seem to have plenty of scraps there, not gonna run out of them in a while :D I was thinking more in terms of convenience and flexibility when you're making patterns on the fly (if you go the thinner route, it is basically paper craft). Also to make multiples with less work (doesn't need to be veneer either). Make the pattern once (whole pattern or small parts to combine) but "vertically", so that every time you take a slice of the thicker piece the cross section has the pattern/element in it. Like, instead of cutting 10 round circles out of a sheet, you just take a big dowel and cut 10 slices out of it. Not sure I am making sense, I am trying to control my wall of text habit :X

it feels like you would have saved a lot of headaches by doing rectangles and then cutting them along the diagonals just before framing 🤔

[@diyhuntress]

Maybe! Can try that next time.

[@asimplelifewoodworking8318]

Anyone who is a woodworker is a scrape wood hoarder

[@matchstickdesignco]

Any time you start to feel like you have scrap wood problem, just remember this: There is no such thing as scrap wood. 😁

[@diyhuntress]

Ahahah - those are some wise words. 😉

[@AndrewMiguelez]

Honestly, I'd really love to watch a directors cut where you literally shout out random angles... Just saying.

😂😂😂 I’ll save them for a rainy day.
