Made to Fit Signs {How To}


With my new crackled island came a desire to paint other things that same color... so...

I found some old picture frames lying around the house that I had not been using and went to work.

What you Need:

2 old picture frames

Paint color of your choice

piece of scrapbook paper

wood letters of desired word (Hobby Lobby- $.49 a letter)

hot glue gun and sticks

Getting to Work.

First of all take all the backing off of both frames. This will allow you to paint the frames without getting paint all over the glass.

Then paint the frame your desired color (you could even spray paint... this would be quick and easy).

Once the frames are done drying you can begin putting the frame back together. For the frame with words (such as my "Cafe" one) you can leave off the cardboard backing and just place the glass back inside. For the dry erase frame- take the scrapbook color of choice and cut and size it to the frame and glue it (I used hot glue) to the cardboard.

Your dry erase board is now complete... I use mine as a "Menu" board and "Shopping List", feel free to use it however it fits in your house!

With your letters, you can leave them a rustic wood color or paint them your desired color.

Once the paint is dry you can hot glue them to the glass of the frame.
