This home decor piece was fun to make and give away. It was well received. So grab the letters from the big box store, and decorate away. There are so many options, as well as color options. I have made sets in blue, green, and red. I was able use items in supply stash, such as retired Stampin' Up paper. No matter the color, the steps are the same.

1. Start with selecting the color palette. Paint the wooden blocks with acrylic paint. Please spend a little more to get better coverage. I tried a cheaper paint, but the more expensive paint delivers a better product.

2. Trace the letters on the Brightly Gleaming Designer Paper. Another suggestion is to turn the letters over, and put on the backside of the paper.   Trace around the letters and cut inside the pen marks.

3. Brush Modge Podge on the front of each letter. Lay on the paper letter, one at a time. Let dry. Modge Podge at least one if not two layers over each letter.

4. Decorate with gold foil  flourishes from the Stitched Stars Dies and attach with Mini Glue Dots.  Stars on the "O" uses a Night of Navy Star,  a Mossy Meadow star, and a decorative gold foil star.  Attach with Mini Glue Dots.

5. Here are some other examples that I made.



This same procedure could be used with other words or letters. My next Modge Podge project will be  OSU for my sister-in-law! She loves the Oaklahoma State University Cowboys and the brightest  orange in the world! I will start with Cajun Craze, Basic Black, and Black Foil!
