E.A.T.


My mom is in the process of renovating her kitchen. Her new color scheme is sage, tan and chocolate brown...I LOVE IT!
For her mother's day gift I wanted to give her decor to match the new colors so I made her an EAT sign.
It was so easy and cost less than $15!


It seems pretty self- explanatory so I wont go into much detail. Simply buy some wood letters and paint. Trace the letters to the craft paper of your choosing and mod podge on...so quick & easy! I cut down my letters a little bit so the painted {wood} edges show...its hard to tell it being on a brown wall. (I also lightly brushed the paper with brown paint to make it look antique-y)

I plan to make one for my kitchen as well but, didn't get to it over the weekend...mine is going to say YUM!
Happy Tuesday Everyone!

    Cute! I love that you trimmed the letters slightly smaller than the wood. Looks great. :-)

    So very cute! My daughter is working on something similar. I just LOVE words and letters that are dimensional like this.
