How To Paint Letters Perfectly

This pin takes you to a blog where the blogger explains how she personalizes wood that she is painting. Its a pretty simple process and it works like a DREAM!
"take me to the sea"

 The idea is you print out the word/letter/font you want, tape the print out on to the wood you want to paint, trace them with a ball point pen (it makes an indent in the wood so you have an outline! genius)  and you paint within the outline. you can see my first word "take" is a little off but once I got the hang of it, it was easy.



It is something I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to personalize something, I'm certainly going to use this technique again.  My daughter's headboard is next!
