Laurie of Projects by Laurie emailed me to let me know that thanks to Tying the Monkey Fist Knot with Rope, she made this most perfect little knot! And I wanted to know more about the buoy!
Turns out, they're Pottery BarnKnock Off's! Unlike my Wood Buoy Project, these are cut with perfect angles.

Laurie followed Stephanie's tutorial Pottery Barn Inspired Wood Buoys!


My husband was cutting angles for my buoys with a miter saw, here a circular saw is used, which you are probably more likely to own. So you (have your husband) cut all the guidelines out on each side. Once done, drill out a hole near the top, then sand your wood buoys and distress if desired.

And here they are. Stephanie's gorgeous Pottery Barn style wood buoys! Oh, and the numbers, easy breezy peel and stick vinyls.

Love these! Thanks for the pattern too! I'm going to make some for my dollhouse!
Those look fabulous!! We used a table saw, well I didn't, but hubby did :) I still can't look at it and figure out how to cut it. My brain must be backwards! I love the numbers!!
I love these! And I am a big fan of numbers on anything. Really cute!
I would love one to mark my address by my front door.
I'm going to leave this post up for hubby to see! I SO want some buoys for my kitchen! Great links and info! Thanks! ♥
So cute! I love them with the numbers! I don't know if I trust myself with a saw!
I had plans to do this. Now it feels like winter here. Maybe next summmer!
Thanks for posting my post!!!
Cute ideas! Love this kind of stuff.
Wow love those!!
Fab shortcuts thanks for sharing.
My father used to hand make monkey fists as the throw ball for his life rings and for many others. Now retired he simply doesn't have the time to make any for moi!
I'll have to stop drooling and start doing...
Haven't learned the monkey fist yet, as I am all thumbs. But we've got every power tool known to man, so there's no excuse for not making some of these... they'd make great gifts.
Very cool project. I love them!
Love them too. Would love to try something like that here. Pruxxx
Really neat!!!! I would love them distressed a little, too, like they've been banging around on the side of a boat or something. Thanks for sharing the instructions! :)
