Crafting

What I had originally planned on doing was way more complicated. It involved making something like a picture frame with decorative moulding trim and cutting it all in a mitering box and going absolutely crazy. Then I saw these plaque/mounting boards and said SO SIMPLE! DUH!!

I found a piece of scrapbook paper in the color theme I wanted. I have this crazy obsession with woodland creatures (especially cute owls) right now and the paper I found was really cute!  I painted the edge of the plaque and the front and sides of the letters in coordinating brown and pink. I cut the the paper in shape of the plaque and glued it down with Mod Podge. I nailed the letters on, screwed in some eye-screws and threaded the matching ribbon. Voila!
