I wanted to make something cute to give to my former boss for Christmas. I'll probably make her an ornament for her tree, as well, but I think she'll like this and it was SO EASY! I bought the wooden word "Faith" for $1 at, where else?, the Dollar Tree. The rest of the materials I had on hand.

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Wood word
  • Red Sharpie
  • Glitter
  • Tiny Clothes Pin

Steps (5 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    I colored the whole thing with the sharpie first, and it ended up looking like a red wood stain. I liked it!

  2. 2

    Don't laugh too much at my black fingers. I was trying to dye some fabric and, well, when they say "wear rubber gloves," they mean it!!

  3. 3

    I painted glue on the letters and shook my crystal glitter over them, one letter at a time, then glittered the front of the base, also.

  4. 4

    Once the glitter was finished, I glued tiny clothespins to the backs of each letter.

  5. 5

    Once the glue was dry, it was ready to be boxed, wrapped and given. So easy!
