Project

I have recently discovered Pintrest online and have become an addict. I found this simple yet too cute craft there and had to try it with a few of my friends.

Materials for each person

1 1x8 board

black spray paint

8 Metal clasps (Walmart 2-$1.88)

Wood glue

Picture Hangers

Vinyl Lettering

I had Brent pick out our wood and then I spray painted them in our garage. 

It did take a few coats to cover them completely.

Once the paint was dry, we put our picture fasteners in first.

(Yes I did this myself! I used the electric screw driver and everything!)

We then measured out where we wanted our clips and used the wood glue to secure them. 

They had to dry over night. 

 A friend of ours cuts vinyl and made me this sign!  I had her make mine bigger to fit the space better.

We LOVE it!  It fits in our office area perfectly!

Another craft

This is another project that goes along with the birthday board. As part of the decorations, you put pictures up of the birthday kid at different ages. Robin cut these out for us and only charged us $10 for the set (deal! They were $36 online). We then modge podged scrapbook paper over the front and hot glued clothes pins to the back. I love it!  It will be a fun addition to our new birthday tradition.
