Ruthie's letters

After we posted the beautiful letters (see post below) we had requests for instructions so here's how it's done!

Decorative Wall Letters

Supply List:
*Provo Craft Wooden Letters
*Acrylic Paint(Making Memories or Paint Daubers work great)
*Adhesive(Glossy Accents, Mod Podge, KI liquid, etc.)
and foam brush for application
*Papers and Embellishments(Ruth used Basic Grey)
*Sanding tools (Basic Grey)


Paint the edges of all the letters and let them dry. Don’t worry if you get paint on the top....this will be covered.
Apply a layer of adhesive to the letters and cover just the top of the letters with the papers you have chosen. Rub them down nice and tight.
Now, use the sanding tools to remove the excess paper from the edges.
Embellish as desired. It’s fun to pick a paper line and use the embellishments that coordinate with it!!!
