I love the feelings that vintage sleds evoke for both young and old and have always wanted to include them in my Christmas décor. They're hard to come by and quite pricey, so I decided to make my own!
– Jigsaw – Miter Saw – Wood Planks – Screws – Cordless Drill – Drill Bit – Stain
We started with the ski pieces that go underneath. If you're using a stain, its easiest to stain each layer as you go.
We screwed the support planks onto the skis, then added the top planks. Screwing it all together was pretty easy.
The reins are made with a strip of fabric. I drilled a hole on either side of the top piece and then run the fabric through, tying a knot at the ends.
