Give Thanks Board DIY with a Twist! #12MonthsOfMartha

This months 12 Months of Martha Box had a bunch of fall themed paper, stickers and liquid gilding.  I thought our porch need to be decorated for Thanksgiving (the often time forgotten holiday).  So, I made this Give Thanks Board.

Here is what you will need:

1. Paint, scrap board, Martha Stewart liquid gilding, Martha Stewart Fall Stickers.

2. Paint your board.  I want my board to look rustic, so I only did one coat.

3. Lay out and paint your words.  I free handed mine after measuring how to fit all the letters on the board.  But you could use a stencil or this trace method if you are not confident in your writing skills.

4. Add stickers on to the board as you see fit. 

And you get a great decoration for your front porch that can be made in one afternoon! 

But WAIT- there is more... flip it over and decorate it for Christmas! 

Then it will be all ready to go for you the day after Thanksgiving!  I love a two-in-one design... less things to store! 

Check out more fun projects on the 12 Month of Martha Pinterest board!
