FA LA LA Letter Set Tutorial by Taylor Peterson

 

FA LA LA LETTER SET
Tutorial 

Who else is ready for Christmas? Doing this Christmas Fa La La letter set sure got me into the Christmas spirit! There are so many fun and adorable things to make for your home for the holidays at The Wood Station. From letter sets to Door hangs, you can find just about anything in their store. And their paper selection is awesome – I had a hard time choosing which papers to use!

 

 

First, start off by prepping your wood. Wipe off any excess saw dust from your project and sand down any rough edges. Make sure you get as much excess saw dust off as you can, so the paint and paper will stick better to the wood.

 

 

Time to pick your paper and trace out your letters. I always mark the front of my letter with a pen or pencil. Even though the [A]’s and the [L]’s are the same letter, they are each hand cut so they all have a little bit of their own character… So I marked each of them with the paper color/design that I traced the letter on, just to make sure I got the correct one. When tracing your letter, lay it face down on the back side of the paper you are going to use. Cut out and set aside.

 

 

When painting wood that you are going to be using paper on, only paint the back, sides and the very edges of the front. Paper will sick better to unpainted wood. You can paint/stain the letters all one color, or using coordinating colors to match your paper. Make sure you paint the entire bottom block that the vinyl will go on.

 

 

When gluing paper onto wood, ALWAYS use wood glue! {Purchased at The Wood Station} I have projects from last year and the paper still looks awesome! Before using wood glue, I used Modge Podge and anything I used that on has lifted/bubbled. Use a thin layer of glue spread on the entire letter and put on your paper, making sure to push out any air bubbles getting the paper nice and smooth. Once dry, sand off any excess paper – making sure to sand downward as to not pull the paper back off. 

 

 

At this point, be creative! If you want to distress it – go for it! The Wood Station has anything and everything you will need to complete your project. Embellishments, ribbon, wire, etc. The fun thing about all of their projects is that they have everything to make them your own.

 

 
 

 

Happy Crafting!
