The English language is an amazing thing! All the letters and the different combinations and how we communicate it just amazes me. I am someone who can really appreciate letters since I am a horrible speller, but I feel I make up for it by the amount of talking I do. Anyways, I have digressed. I’ve been wanting to get our initials L & C in wooden letters to put on our mantel. I love the ones from Anthroplogie below, but $18.00 a letter just seems a little steep.
So I shopped around and found this great site for wooden letters. You can customize the size and font. This was exactly what I was looking for.
Here are my unfished letters when they came in.
I picked up a smoke gray spray paint for both letters and gave them just a quick spray. Here are my final letters, I still need to sand them a little, to distress them but I was pretty excited how they turned out so I wanted to share.
