Jason's Fathers Day Gift

Jason has been wanting a cornhole set for a couple years now, but he is too cheap to buy one.  About a week before Fathers Day, I happened to see some cornhole boards for sale at a antique/consignment shop.  I was able to get them for $18.  Luckily, they were in good shape, just a little dusty and dirty, and they were all white.  I was excited about that because then I could paint them however we wanted.  We decided on blue and white and doing the Colt's horseshoe on them.  I got them all spray painted a couple weeks ago and finally got the horseshoe painted on them just in time for the cookout.  I also managed to sew us up a set of bags for like $10.  So for just less than $30, Jason got a Fathers Day gift he loves and I get to stop hearing about how much he would like a cornhole set.  Win-win for us a both...
