My usefully unusual upcycled farm bolt DIY

If you follow me on instagram you’ll already have seen my latest creepy attic discovery:

two fantastically old giant farm bolts!

I knew I just had to upcycle them but these heavy beauties had me a bit stumped…

Any idea what I created with them?

I grabbed an old wooden shelf from storage that had definitely seen better days & my fancy bolts

drilled a hole at each end of the shelf

screwed the bolts through the holes & snagged some white spray paint

gave everything a couple of coats of gleaming white & hung it up

and my cool new bedroom bookshelf was ready to house an eclectic selection of my fave late night reading!
