I made some Christmas signs!<\/p>\n

NOEL<\/h2>\n

I made “NOEL” out of wooden letters and a little wreath! I painted the letters (one of them used to be a zebra print pattern…) and wrapped little berry garland around the wreath. I also painted two stars and glued them together. I placed this “sign” above a little ledge in my kitchen.<\/p>\n

\"NOEL<\/a>\"NOEL<\/a> I got the idea for my NOEL sign from a pin on pinterest<\/a>. Unfortunately, it looks like the post that linked to this pin has been deleted… Anyway, I really like how the in the pin’s photo the letters overlap each other, but I couldn’t do that on my little ledge because it wasn’t deep enough.<\/p>\n

(Also note that I tie ribbons around my cabinet doors and use cute little clothes-pins to display my Christmas cards! This was another idea from pinterest from the blog Greener Grass<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Wishing You Peace, Joy, and Love<\/h2>\n

Next I made “Wishing You Peace, Joy, and Love”! This sign is my favorite. Matt bought me a 1×6 board and cut 18 inch pieces. Then he stained them and glued them together.\u00a0Then I painted on the words and around the edges!<\/p>\n

\""Wishing<\/a>\"Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

My mantel is so pretty with my new Christmas sign! (Also, aren’t our stockings adorable? And they still get used – we take our stockings with us every year to Michigan for Christmas and Santa still finds us and leaves us gifts!)<\/p>\n

Merry Christmas<\/h2>\n

There was extra wood from my Love, Joy and Peace sign (above), so Matt stained it too and I turned it into my “Merry Christmas” sign! I hung this one by my front door with my beautiful wall hanging that my mother in law made me!<\/p>\n

\""Merry<\/a>\"Merry<\/a>This was also a sign idea from pinterest<\/a>! I hadn’t planned on making this one, but when I realized there was extra wood Matt had prepared, I had to go find another idea… and it didn’t take long! Gotta love Pinterest! This sign is Matt’s favorite. :-)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
