Day 20 of 20 Days of Christmas: Sled Wall Hanging

For Day 20, I have a sled that I decorated to be a Christmas Wall Hanging. 

I found this sled at a thrift store and thought I could fix that up.  Here is how it looked to begin with.
First, I removed the tags and the yarn.  Then, I removed the wooden slats that were messed up and used a heat gun to fix them.

Next, I used acrylic paint to paint the top of the sled red.

Finally, I took two Christmas ornaments that I got Walmart for $1 each and hot glued them onto the sled.  I then added some red ribbon to hang it with.
