Every Little Thing.....

Here's a little something I commissioned my daughter-in-law to make for me. I had seen this done on Pinterest and loved it!

Here's the lowdown on how we created this lovely board.

I got a piece of scrap plywood from my husband's shop. My piece is about 3 feet x 2 feet but yours can be any size, depending on what you want.

I painted it black. After the black was dry, I painted it a celery green color. After that dried my DIL painted the words on it with acrylic paints and a white marker. She gave it back to me and distressed the whole thing with sandpaper, concentrating on the corners and edges. Then I watered down some light brown paint and went over the surface, wiping off the excess. Turned out great!!! I ordered three little vinyl bird decals from Etsy (link below) to top it off. I hung the sign up and put the decals on the wall right above the sign.
