I put it on my patio table so you could get an idea of how big the box is!
I was so excited, I could hardly way to rip into the box and see what I ordered. Do you want to see?!
YAY! I LOVE that B!
These were ordered from woodenletters.net. Use them! They are SO awesome!
Our names are a little bigger than I want. Not at any fault of the company though. I just picked the wrong size. I am thinking about re-ordering our names in a smaller size, but Lance already said "No Kari, they will be fine." I might do it anyway though, because it is just going to bother me. What will I do with the big 'Lance' and the big 'Kari' though?
This 'Love' is actually going to be used as a photo prop.
As soon as I got the box opened and saw everything was there I went right on over to Hobby Lobby. I needed paint! I remembered to bring my color swatches I bought from David's Bridal so I could make sure to match the colors up too. I found my paint and the wood putty I needed, and purchased them. Then I went down to a tool store in the same plaza and got some fine grit sand paper.
I sanded everything, put down some wax paper on my coffee table, and got to painting. I absolutely love all the colors once on the wood. I haven't finished the project completely, I'm waiting for Lance to get home to help me put it all together.
Want a sneak peek of what the wood letters are looking like so far?
No crafting project can happen in our house without a fountain coke present.
Really though. I'm a cokeaholic.
What crafty projects are you working on?
