I've gotten bitten by the redecorating bug. Chalk it up to cold weather and being stuck in the house more than usual, but right now I just want to give everything in my home a face-lift. I've been browsing new furniture and dreaming of ways to switch stuff up. After a crazy-hectic/messy house week, I decided on a whim to switch up the mantle to give this side of our living room a fresh look!
To make this sign, I first printed letters out on some scrap paper. Easy-peasy now that we have a printer at home again (I'm way too excited about this). I cut the letters out and traced around them with a white colored pencil. Chalk works great for this, too. After the letters were traced onto the board, I filled them in with Elmers glue and poured glitter over. When the glitter was dry, I dusted the excess off and went to work on switching things out.
It's amazing what a few plants and a DIY sign can do to make things feel new again. We just moved
the bison over a wall, so he is still a big part of our living room decor. I'll share more home bits as more progress is made!
i love it! i've been feeling the same way, lately, and wanting to go on a plant shopping spree. i love the sign, too. never enough glitter!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I've got the bug too, but so far I've just been brainstorming ideas and have yet to execute!

Love this! You know, I think I ruined that song for my entire family...
ReplyDelete...When I was about twelve, I listened to it, on repeat, almost every waking moment. In the shower, in my room, on my boom box when I went outside. It was like my theme song that year.
....I have no regrets.
Love a good glitter statement sign! So great!
