I saw this in Pottery Barn and loved it. However, I wasn't about to pay $99 for it, so I set out to make my own. I used a round tree stake from Olsen's Nursery ($4), a dowel rod from Lowes ($2), twine, and black spray paint to make the mast. I simply used the jute twine to lash the two pieces of wood together. I could go into ship building I know :). To make the sail, I purchased a yard of heavy canvas for $10 and had it screenprinted for $15. Then I used gromets from Hobby Lobby ($6), and shower curtain rings from Target ($6) to finish the sail. So for a grand total of $43, I got the exact same look as the Pottery Barn inspiration for half the price. I LOVE IT!!
So clever looks awesome!
