Burlap BOO & Mantle

I recently made a burlap BOO! sign to sell in the store.  I like the look of it leaned on a shelf or mantle.  I love the simplicity and people can't seem to get enough of burlap these days!

I found four pieces of mdf at Goodwill for .99 (for all four pieces).  They were the same size, and I had a bunch of burlap laying around, so I got to work. 

First, I printed out BOO! on Word.  I decied to just lay the paper underneath the burlap so the letter would show through.  I used acrylic craft paint and simple traced the outline of the letter and filled it in.

I let each letter dry and then hot glued the burlap to the back of the mdf.

 

Super simple, inexpensive, and it makes a statement!  The possibilities are endless with the letters or words you could use!

I was thinking that I should have kept it for my own home, but it sold at the store, so I decided to make my own.  This time I used black burlap and white paint. I used chalk to outline the letters this time. 

More pics and info on the wreath, mirror, and branches to come!
