And now, Thrifty Thursday...

I had been wanting an initial for my front door to go on my wreath. Something metal. I couldnt find what I wanted , so until I do...I created my own.

From foam board!

I just hand drew my initial. Then used a razor knife and cut it out. I spray painted it with 2 different metalic paints (gold and copper) and then sealed it. I wired it onto my wreath. And wah-la!

My project cost me less than $3.00 for a monogrammed wreath. (I had the wreath in my attic).
