Personalized Wall Plaques

My sister-in-law asked me to make her name plaques for her nursery and this is what I came up with.  I had purchased the wooded plaques from Joann's, and when my mother-in-law saw them, she said my father-in-law could cut them out for me. She traced them out, took them to my handy father-in-law, and he saved me 20 bucks by cutting them for me! I returned the one's I bought, but of course the refund money went to more crafting supplies!



She wanted the letter's painted brown, but I wasn't crazy about the dark brown color, so I distressed the letter's to soften them up some.  I added ribbon, flowers, and pearls to dress them up.

Her shower was last weekend and she LOVED them!  Several other family members at the shower liked them as well, so hopefully I can get a few orders to make more when there is another baby on the way!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
