Weather Vane Free Project Plan

Weather vanes are as popular today as they were 100 years ago. Both of these patterns are taken directly from original weather vanes. You can distress these if you like them to look old. Weather vanes have been used for centuries. The rooster is an old symbol used to identify places of worship of the early church, since Peter made his three denials before the cock crowed. The arrow points into the wind and stays aligned as the wind changes. The cock weather vane on church steeples signified how easily faith could be swayed.


Instructions

Step 1
Lay out either or both patterns on a 1/2-inch grid.

Step 2
Transfer the pattern(s) to the wood and cut out.

Step 3
Paint to suit. I prefer sanding the edges slightlyl and staining over the paint to get an old look.



These weather vanes make great wall hangings
