It’s time for the BIG reveal (hee-hee).  I’m sharing my version of the November Do-It-Herself (DIH) Workshops project, an ornament display.  Of course I stayed true to my style and kept it simple and rustic. However, I couldn’t be more thrilled as to how my Shiplap Ornament Display turned out.

Step by step instructions on how to build a simple, rustic Shiplap Ornament Display. A great addition to your rustic, farmhouse holiday decor -- and you can change out the ornaments! livelaughrowe.comShiplap Ornament Display

Let’s be honest here — at first I didn’t know what I was going to do.  As I walked through the aisles of Home Depot, I knew that all of the glittered ornaments were out of the question.  See, glitter gives me EXTREME anxiety.  So, I had to think a little outside the box.  Let’s take a look!

Supplies for Shiplap Ornament Display:

1 – 1x6x8 Wood Barn Grey Shiplap Siding
1 – Yardstick
Wood Glue
Staple Gun
1″ Flat Head Nails
2 boxes, Metal Silver Bell Christmas Ornaments

Step by step instructions on how to build a simple, rustic Shiplap Ornament Display. A great addition to your rustic, farmhouse holiday decor. livelaughrowe.comStep One:
Cut shiplap into three 2′ long pieces.

Step Two:
Place boards face down and run a bead of wood glue along tongue of board to connect.  Wood glue is for additional bonding.

Step Three:
Secure with braces.  I cut two 9″ pieces to place along the three boards to secure them together.  Again, apply a bead of wood glue, place down on boards and use your staple gun to complete attaching the braces.

Step Four: (optional)
The boards were a wee-bit uneven, so while drying I placed a piece of scrap wood on top of the shiplap boards and used clamps to tighten it down and even out a bit more.  Being this is a rustic piece, that is completely optional and at your discretion.

Lay out your ornaments to get an idea of how you’ll be placing them.

Step Six:
Measure accordingly to ensure that your ornaments will be centered and straight.  We use a t-square to and a piece of wood to measure the top and bottom rows.

Steps Seven and Eight:
Attach nails — and ornaments!

A great addition to your rustic, farmhouse holiday decor -- and you can change out the ornaments! livelaughrowe.comWhat I absolutely LOVE about my version is that in using the nails, you can change out the ornaments!  Wait, whaaaa?  Yep, you can change out the ornaments.  Of course you’ll still need to use a smaller ball, but it does provide versatility and that is always a win-win in any DIY project.

    I had no idea that “shiplap” was an actual thing until Joanna Gaines told me so. Shiplap is the Chevron of 2016. I love this idea!

    Love this but have an idea for an advent tree. Why not in the middle at the bottom add two rows with two bells that would form a trunk. That would be 25 bells which is perfect for an advent tree. The nails would already show the shape while the ornaments are added each day.

    Love it with the bells too!

      Yay! I’m so glad you like it — and I think the vintage bulbs will be perfection.
