So here's how I did it:
I went to my neighborhood craft store and bought an 8x 10 canvas, some Gorilla Glue, spray paint, and wooden letter cutouts. I've seen this done with foam letters, but the wooden ones were on clearance, so wood it was!
I laid my canvas out and fiddled with the wooden letters until I liked the arrangement. Once I did, I glued them in place with my trusty Gorilla Glue.
Then, I took the whole thing outside and spray painted it glossy white.
While that dried, I chose my spoons. I liked the idea of a big spoon and a little spoon, so I searched my kitchen until I found the perfect, mismatched pair. Once I did, I sprayed them with metallic silver paint. After they dried, I made the decision to spray my little spoon with a silver glitter spray. Because...well, does anyone really need an excuse to add some glitter?
After about an hour, I added some picture-hanging hardware, some ribbon, and stepped back to admire it! I can't wait to give it to my friend who is visiting this weekend. :)
What do you think?? I LOVE how it turned out!!!
