Today I decided to skip the gym and head out to do some Christmas shopping. That was a workout within itself! It is so nice to come home to a decorated home. I really like our home but I especially like it at Christmas time. I would like to have twinkling lights up all year round.
I mentioned last week that I was going to share my DIY Gold Glitter Believe Sign. This was another quick, easy and inexpensive project. The longest part was waiting for the paint to dry.
Supplies Needed:
Scrap wood
Vinyl Lettering (I made mine with my Cricut Cutter)
White Paint
Gold Glitter Paint
I had some scrap wood in the garage and the paint was also something I had on hand. The first thing you need to do is put your base coat of paint on your piece of wood. I chose white as my base color. I let that dry overnight.
I used my Cricut Cutter to make the vinyl letters. (Mine was a gift from Santa) If you do not have a craft cutter you can use vinyl stickers from Michaels Craft Store. I used stickers on my Christmas Countdown Sign and My Family Birthday Calendar and they worked perfectly.
So once your base coat is dry, place you lettering on the sign. I then sprayed several light coats of the gold glitter paint over the entire sign. I let the gold paint dry but not completely. I then pulled the vinyl lettering off to reveal the white lettering underneath.
I added my Believe Sign to my Ikea Billy Bookcase in my office for a little Christmas bling.
Next week I am planning on sharing my Christmas Home Tour but for now, I am off to hide some presents before the Gman gets home from school.
Until Next Time,
