Pallet sign

I was asked by some lovely ladies from the local MOPS organization 

to make a sign for them to display at the meetings.

They wanted something that would portray the theme for the upcoming year.

They wanted a hand painted sign that was somewhat rustic.

They gave me no real guidelines other then the wording.

This is what I came up with.  

What do you think???

I used a small pallet and used 4 of the slats and attached them together to make the sign.

I then freehanded the words.  

No stencils for me {That is to many rules for me to follow} 

I like just filling the spaces as it is needed.

I am often asked how I do the wording all freehand. 

Well the secret is...............

CHALK!

I write all over the board with a piece of chalk to set out my guide lines and the word spacing.

It looks like a mess but it does the trick and wipes of clean with a damp cloth!

 I can't wait to show the ladies this.

It was so fun to do and I am honored they asked me to do it!
