I saw this little beauty (vintage key art on the wall) on the
Pottery Barn website and longed for it...
But paying almost $400 for it was out of the question.
So, what's a girl to do?
Look for a way to make it herself!
I started looking back at some of the blog archives of the blogs
I already followed. When I found the tutorial to make my own on
Susie Harris's blog I was ecstatic!
I knew I liked her ;)
So, I just followed Susie's simple step-by-step tutorial here and...
LOVELY!
I switched up the type of font used because I
wanted more of a typewriter style.
You can do whatever font tickles your fancy!
I hung mine on the wall in my bedroom above my desk...
Susie also posted a reverse of the colors for
this project which you can see here.
It's fun to see how a plain piece of 2' x 2' wood from Lowe's
can turn into a beautiful homemade statement in your home.
I hope everyone is inspired to make a homemade statement in
their home, whether its this project or another :)
Ooooh - I've been eyeing that project, so it's good to see that someone else did it successfully! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks Katy! You should definitely give it a try!
