~thrifty thursday~{diy wood arrow}

This is the simplest arrow to make and you can make

 it very inexpensively using one piece of MDF.

It will run you around $20.00.

Here are the tools and pieces you will need.

I used a chop saw and a jigsaw, liquid nails, paint, dark wax, and of course the mdf.

A~ 6 pieces that measure 10" and both ends cut on a 45 degree angle.

B~ 2 triangle pieces 10" {on the longest side}

C~ 1 skinny piece with the end notched out, it measures 2" x 24" 

D~ 1 fat piece, it measures 6" x 36" notched out at one end

You should have 10 pieces total.

You can pre paint the pieces at this point, or paint it when it is all assembled.

Start with D and attach C to the middle.

(use liquid nails for these steps}

Add one B piece, then the other, slightly higher, on the end that is not notched out.

At the end that is notched out, add the A pieces.

Let it dry and distress using dark wax or whatever method you prefer.

That's all!

On mine, I used Annie Sloan Old White paint with a combo of light and dark wax.

Have a great day!
