Yesterday I went on and on about how I met my husband and the story behind why I made this; so you can check out yesterday's post if you want the history.
Here is what I made:
I found this old cupboard door at my favorite store,
JB Knacker, and wasn't sure what to do with it until this came to me.
First, I laid out the letters to see which combination I liked best. I found my letters at
JB Knacker and the
Junk Bonanza and substituted chip board letters if I couldn't find ones I needed. As you can see from this picture and the finished product I changed my mind and rearranged a bit.
Next, I had to use some Goo Gone to clean off some old scotch tape.
Next I painted the chip board letters and colored the metal letters so they would show up.
Because I change my mind so much I attached the letters with
Handi-Tak so that if I wanted to change a letter out or rearrange the letters I could.
That's it, super fun and easy! Here are some close up pictures:
He loved it and now I am just waiting for him to help hang it up because it is HEAVY!!
