A little craft for mama

Awhile back my sister in law Lindsey gave my mother in law a set of wooden letters that spelt the word "SEW". My mother in law hangs them in her sewing room.....what makes these letters super cool? She applied scrapbook type paper to the letters and made them into something more than just plain white letters.
So with this in mind and a bottle of handy dandy mod podge I sought out some letters. Rory has a birthday party tomorrow for her twin friends Maya and Claire. So I thought this would be cool to do for them and kind of test it out on them too....being they are only 9.....So we went and got some paper that suits their personalities and their initials and I went to work.
Now I am not even close to Lindsey's talent with these letters.....but I am proud for getting it to work and look somewhat decent. I definitely have some learning to do but it was still a fun project.
This was a recnt project of Abi's from her Home Arts class at 4H. She used a piece of wood, paint, velum and mod podge and some glue.....pretty sweet!
After my craftiness!
