My wife asked me to make a letter board for the home. I decided to mix it up a bit and add the option for photos as well. These are really neat to have for family announcements and welcoming family or guests. There are several designs out there but I decided to go with a more wood like design. I didn’t want the traditional felt board with plastic letters. Very tacky if you ask me. Anyway, I got to use my router table again and I’m very much enjoying the extra room.
I used oak backings for the letters and just purchased the pre-cut wooden letters from my local hobby shop. My wife loves it and it’s rather fun making new messages on it. Especially when you’re the one who made it!
