It all started with the piece of scrap ply-wood I picked up for free at the H*me D*pot.
After the kiddos were in bed... painted it black... printed out letters right off my computer... centered them. Pressed down with a ball point pen and traced letters to create my lines for painting.
Here it is all painted and before distressing with sand paper...
And the final product... took me about an hour to complete. I think it looks better in person... it reminds me of an old sign that been up in a garage for years. I can't wait to find the perfect spot in my house for it...

Wasn't that fun to make? I love doing that. I like your letters and the design of it. It's an impact piece for sure. Where are you going to put it?
great Christmas gifts for friends!
LOVE that!! we went to joann's today, and now i'm all in a crafty mood. gah! i love this especially...there's a long, narrow space above our dining room window that i've been wanting to put something on, and this type of thing would be perfect! too bad my last name's tiny and short. :0( ha!
