This was a great project to use up wood scraps and “play” with game letter tiles.
I have no idea what game the black tiles came from, but the others came from an old Scrabble game.
I don’t have any pictures of the steps, but I kinda think they are self-explanatory. Just in case you need a little more info, I’ll run it down for you.
I first laid out all the Christmas words I could think of with the tiles I had.
Then I measured the length of the words and added a bit. Each lath was cut to the individual measurements of each word. Keeping track of that could have made me a little crazy, but I made a master list of all the words and measurements to save my sanity.
I drilled a hole for the hanger and gave each board a quick rub of stain.
The embellishments are bits of greenery, berries and tiny winter die cuts.
And glitter! Yay! Yep, glitter just makes me happy. 🙂
These will be making their debut at the craft show this weekend.
Enjoy!
These are adorable! I need to add these to my Christmas craft list. They would look great on our tree and make fun gifts for family.
Thanks so much!
Love these! Thanks for sharing!
Girl you never fail to amaze me, how many more awesome things can you think of, must be why you sell so many items at your shows. You can make more awesome things out of junk than anybody I know.
