So as most of you know I am addicted to the Goodwill and to Thrift Stores of any kind. While I was shopping around last week at the Salvation Army I came across a piece of wood that made me think of my next project. A little something to spruce up the "Man Cave". I paid a whopping $ 0.99 for it and it came out pretty good if you ask me! Here is how I did it......
Step one:
Find a piece of wood that you can work with easily.
Step two:
Pick your paint color and start to cover......
Step three:
Cover it a few times if you need to so that the original color doesn't show through easily.
Step four:
Pick the color for your lettering & write away! You may have to go over this a few times also.
Step five:
Distress it or scratch the paint wherever you wish to make it look great! Remember it is going in the man cave so it needs to look WORNOUT! ha ha
I took a screwdriver and scratched the parts that look a bit shiny and then rubbed my finger over the black paint for a smudged look.
Dr. Pepper ;oved it and it hung it in his "man Cave" as soon as I got home on Sunday. :) I can't wait for him to see the project I am working on for him for his birthday.......I think he is going to LOVE IT!!!!
