Updating Ugly Sign


I've seen a lot of upcycling on the web. I'm not quite to that point in my crafting yet. Not that I don't like it, I just don't have the vision yet. So to start small I updated a Happy Easter Sign that I had recieved probably as a Bunko prize.

When I put the sign on my mantel the colors were so blah that you hardly noticed the sign.

So to fix that; I went from BLAH

To Wow

What I did:
Painted the letters all white (front, back and side). This took a few coats.
Painted the fron the colors that I wanted
Inked the edges to make it pop (can't really tell in the pictures)
And eventually I'll add some ribbon to make it cutsey.

For letting me paint my letters Zack got to paint his gun.
