Think of a Word
Sunday, October 18, 2009
Last summer I made a great purchase at a garage sale. For only $5.00 I picked up this entire box of 2 inch black metal letters. The man who sold them to me said they were one of many items in an estate sale. I imagine they were used to make signs of some sort and I have been looking forward to creating some of my own.
Here they are. There are 5-10 of each.
They even came with numbers and the words 'The', 'Mc' and 'De' or is it 'Dc', which I think stands for dollar maybe?
I had some black 5x7 frames and with the burlap I got on sale the other week I decided to get to work and make some seasonal decorations.
First I cut out the burlap to fit inside the frame.
Then I placed the letters on the glass in the frame and put the burlap as the background. Very easy.
See the words I came up with for this season.
I even made one for my bedroom.
And one for the bathroom with a background that matches the rest of the room.

I will definitely make more for the holiday season, but would like some suggestions on what to say. Leave some words or phrases I can make in the comments. And remember there is no E, N, R or S. Be creative, I'll show them on future posts. Thanks for the decorating help!
