My front door was screaming for a wreath or something to spruce it up. So, I decided to do a quick little DIY door hanging.
I've seen several versions of this around the interwebs, so I knew it would be an easy project to tackle. On the way home, I stopped by Hobby Lobby and gathered some supplies. Here is what you will need:
Once you have everything you need, it's time to get started! First, I simply outlined my letter and then cut it out.
The paper wasn't quite big enough to cover the letter, so I had to use two sheets. After everything was cut out, then I covered the letter in mod-podge and placed the paper on to let it set. I started with the smaller piece first so that the bigger piece could overlap. Once the paper was glued in place, I did a couple of coats of mod-podge over the top to seal it all in.
After the letter had dried, I simply attached the bow that I made to the back with some super glue, then hung it on the door. Told ya it was simple!
I wished I had picked different paper, though. The letter looks great by itself, because the paper gives it the illusion that it is real wood. However, I forgot about my slatted door, so it looks a bit off. But from afar, it looks great! I almost went with a black and white polka dot, but it would be super easy to change down the road!
There you have it folks! And all for {well} under $15!!
