Cents and Sensibility with our WaY-sUpEr-CoOl new Penny Threshold

Last summer we enclosed our porch. The wooden flooring is from an industrial plant in Tennessee. We laid the floor but it was next to our stained concrete floor. We weren't sure what to do with the threshold. So, we waited until we got inspired. Well, pennies were the answer.

This is the finished product.

Step one was using Welbond and gluing each individual penny down. No, we didn't have a pattern. Can you find Big Ben? We used the machine last summer in London and made one. I think we used about $13.00 in pennies.

Once the Welbond dried, we were able to use the Fusion Pro black grout.
