Noel Wall Art PB Inspired

Noel Wall Art -  $8.00

 

 

I saw this lovely metal wall art from  PB and it was beautiful, large, and it was $149.  As much as I liked it I was not willing to pay that much for it.

Then I saw an inspired version at Frugal Flourish.  I headed straight to Hobby Lobby to buy the wood letters to make  my own.  The wood letters are about 12” tall and cost $1.99 each.

  This was so easy to make.  I took the four letters and I sprayed painted them using Rust-oleum Hammered black paint.  I liked the hammered look, it gives the chipboard letters an old metal sign look.  After the paint dried I used a heavy duty stapler with 3/8” staples to attach the letters.

I plan on using it on top of an faux mantle I am working on for our Christmas stockings.  I should have that posted this weekend.  I just couldn’t wait to show you.  The final size on this one is 17” by 19”.  If you wanted a smaller size Hobby Lobby had several choices in sizes and fonts.

  1. Super cute - I saw the one posted on FF too, and went to HL but I got the wrong letters. After seeing yours (thanks for posting the tag!) I'm going back today! :)
