Texas Cornhole Boards

My custom cornhole boards turned out great. Thanks Dave!

I used pine for the frame and used birch for the board. Its heavy but it looks great. Everything sanded well and paint went on smoothly. I used burnt orange and made a stencil of a Longhorn logo. I painted ultra white around the edges first with an ultra white triangle in the middle to fit the longhorn logo. Then I taped off a 1 inch edge around the top, then taped off the triangle. I laid the stencil down on the triangle and traced off the longhorn. Then using an exacto knife I cut out the logo. Then I washed it with burnt orange. The tape came off clear. I used two coats for everything- primer, white, and orange. The game boards turned out great. I got friends asking me if I used decals!
