I've seen so many cute beachy mantles and I wanted to try it out. I'm finally getting around to taking down my Fourth of July summer decor and it's too early to put up my fall stuff, so I went for it. I was able to put this together with all stuff I had lying around - including a new "Relax" sign that Jared and I picked up in Catalina. I need to think of something to put in the glass at the back though. Might need to go looking for a pretty candle or something. hmmmm. . . .
I made this sign out of an old board in my garage. It was cut all crooked which gives it a little more character. I painted it white then used a dry brush technique with some brown to antique it. I cut the letters out of some scrapbook paper using my silhouette and mod podged them on. I would have rather done it with vinyl to be quicker, but the only colors I have are white, black and red. I wanted a beachier color. Anyways, I think it turned out pretty good. Jared said, "It's almost there, but not quite" Thanks for the support, honey.
