Make your own Valentine's Day Sign.

This year I decided to decorate my house for a lot of the holidays, and one of my favorite is Valentine's Day. I also thought it would be a good way to teach Tiffany about the different things we celebrate, and she loved seeing the house decorated.
I don't have a lot of decorations for Valentine's Day, so I decided to make my own. I went to Porter's and purchased these wood pieces.

 Then I did quite a few layers of red and pink paint to cover the wood well.

 I found this cute paper with stripes that was just right for the colors I was looking for. I glued it on the wood with Mod Podge and right after I applied a layer of it all over the wood.

 I also found in my craft closet this block and these letters, so I went ahead and did the same thing to them and applied Mod Podge over the finished product to give it a glossy look. (it really makes a big difference.)

 

I waited until they were dry and put them up on my shelf. Cute, huh? And it seriously took me less than 1/2 hour to make it.
