I've seen these plain wooden plaques hanging at the Dollar Tree for some time now. Many different ideas ran through my head...baby's room w/letters, big girls room with patterns, dining room...so many options.
Instead I thought I should send 2 of my brothers and their families a little something for Christmas. This will be the first Christmas I've ever had without my family...tear. But it'll be ok.
I spray painted the whole thing red. Then took Christmas scrapbook paper and Mod Podged it on. Used my Cricut to cut out the letters and Mod Podged them on top. Hot glued some little rhinestones, bells, and ribbon and that's about it. It actually took longer than I had planned, but that was probably because I was crafting with a group of ladies. Talking accounts for the majority of the time I would guess.
I figure I can get away with making them home decor since it's seasonal. They don't have to keep it up if they don't like them. But I think I may make myself one now.
