I started with a scrap piece of wood
and just painted it. This is a project where you put your own
touches and creativity to use.
Once I had the wood painted I cut out
the letters using my Silhouette Cameo and again you can put whatever
word you would like. After the letters were cut out at the size I
wanted I traced them onto the dry board with a pencil.
Now that you have the letters traced
you start adding your nails. I have had these little nails for years
so glad they finally came in handy. Just make sure that you nails
don't go through to the backside of your wood so the nail size will
depend on the thickness of your wood. This is where your creativity
comes into play as well, you can add more nails if you get started
and don't like your design.
Here is what my “J” looked like
after I finished creating the design I wanted. I did play around
with the design and try it several different ways.
Since I was making a Christmas design I
picked the red
solid Devine Twine and Silver
Metallic Devine twine.
Remember this is your creation so have
fun with it.
This was my JOY after I finished with
the weaving.
wanted to add some embellishments to
finish my Joy Plaque. So here is my finished plaque.
Please head over to the Whisker
Graphics store to check out more of the wonderful twine and get
busy having fun with your own project.
Have a very Merry Christmas and I will
be back in 2019 with more fun projects.
