This tin sign was originally for the Mancave but Sun Kissed Husband hadn’t hung it up and in this house, if you snooze, you loose.
I turned the sign over (just in case Sun Kissed Husband ever wants to reclaim it) and got to work. I sprayed it black with dirty sticker and all. I’m not much for prep work.
I used these letters for the words but they are only sticky back on the top so I used spray glue to make sure they stuck. I also used painter’s tape around the edges to give it a border.
I then spray painted it in white but I forgot a picture of that. Oops!
And here’s the finished product.
Ok, I am not crazy about it. It needs something. What is it? Perhaps a graphic? Maybe I should distress it some. Maybe I should leave it outside to rust some. Maybe I should just have bought the vintage one. Hmmm… I

I think it looks awesome in your white kitchen!
You did a GREAT job!
I think it looks great! I would of recreated myself also instead of buying it. :)
I like it... great job! I like the rust idea, too... hope the hubs wasn't too mad...LOL!
hey! thanks for visiting! i like the clean look of the sign in your gorgeous clean kitchen. but i know what you mean...needs something underneath it seems...i am sure you will figure it out.
fun blog.
i think it would like nice and more vintage-like if you distressed and antiqued it. i like it, but i do agree that something is missing. maybe that would give it some more character?
I LOVE IT - job well done!!!!!
Very whimsical! I can see all kinds of cool touches in your home. I need to go hunt for a closeup of that chalkboard frame... yum!!
