DIY Decorative Letters- Cheap!

Thursday, May 10, 2012




These beautiful letters that spell the word 'Dream' cost me about $6 bucks to make!  I am super excited and can not wait to do some more of them.   


Here is what I did:

I found these foam letters at  Hobby Lobby just the other day...  I had no idea they even existed-they are perfect!  

red and yellow 4 in foam letters


 Second, I primed the letters with plain white acrylic paint.. the colors they came in were way to bright for me. 

Then I painted them with a couple coats of flat black acrylic paint..then sanded and then added one more coat of black paint and VIOLA!! 

Gorgeous decorative letters for your walls, shelves or mantel!

P.S. If you know of any other places that sell these letters online, please feel free to share in the comments, as I am planning on buying and making plenty more of these!
