My First Project

Around December of 2011 I found Pinterest and found some Gifts that I could make for my friends and family, that were fairly cheap. Not to get out of giving gifts, but to give something I made for them to have. But first I wanted to try my skills on something for my home. We have lived in Groton for almost 6 months now and we only have one frame up in our house. I wanted to decorate more, but I wanted things I've made up. So I went to Michael's with my friend Brittany and we started crafting.

Materials: (anything can vary in whatever you are making, these items are just what I picked)

"Craftsmart" Acrylic Paint
Paintbrushes
Canvas
Painters Tape
Stencil Letters
Wooden Block Letter P

Ok, Here we go!

 First thing I always do, I plan out where I want things to go, even if its a sketch on some paper. It's almost an OCD, I just like things where they need to be! =P

 Next I got out my painters tape, taped off the pattern I wanted, and painted away!

After that I took off the tape and this is what it looked like.

As I waited for it to dry I painted my stencil letters and my wooden block letter P.

Then I placed everything where I wanted it, and hot glued it. 





***You can use Mod Podge or whatever you please, I didn't have any at the time so Hot glue did just fine.
