Wood Sign

I had one goal today and that was to work out during Lilah's nap, but instead I decided to work on a project I have been thinking about for awhile now. Lance's Dad brought us some old wood from a barn they have at their house a while back and I'm finally putting it to good use! I wanted to make a Christmas sign to put out on my front porch, but didn't get that done, maybe next year! I wasn't for sure what I wanted to do with the other piece, but I knew I wanted to use it inside some how.



This is my inspiration





Here is my sign!! Lance taught me how to use a saw and nail gun yesterday so I cut and nailed the boards together myself. 
Getting there!!



Here is my sign after a little sanding and I added some more paint. I think I need to sand it a little more. I want it to look a little older. 


I also need to put my saying on.  I want to use a stencil and paint the letters on I just haven't found a stencil yet. I know you can print some off, but we don't have ink in our printer go figure!  

I'll post more pics when I'm done, which is hopefully this week!!

Happy Monday, now maybe I should go work out:)
