Knowing how much you crave "afters", I've got one for you! Remember the first Brainstorm with Leslie's piece of barnwood?
Tadaa!
Leslie went for one of your ideas. Painting Beach on it as was suggested didn't make much sense though because Leslie's in the mountains but she was inspired by that idea and painted her last name on it instead. Great job, don't you think?
Here's how she did it in her own words:
"To make my own stencil, I picked a suitable font and printed 650 point letters out on 8 1/2 x 11 pieces of paper on my printer. Then I taped the word together on some clear vinyl shelf liner I had and cut out with an exacto knife. I taped the vinyl to the wood and used a stencil brush with cream stencil paint (2 coats). Voila!"
Good thing that she's Ms Hill and not Ms Humperdinckel :) Thanks so much Leslie!
