What I used: 

  • 12 x 24 piece of plywood
  • FrogTape®
  • paint and foam paint brush
  • wooden letters
  • hot glue (or wood glue and clamps or screws)

What I did:

1. Paint wooden letters if needed and let dry. Mine came from the craft store dollar section pre-finished. 

 2. I taped off stripes using FrogTape Multi-Surface. I made a larger stripe in the middle to create a darker background since my letters are lighter in color.

3. Using a plastic card, I burnished the edges of the tape to ensure crisp clean lines.

4. Next I applied a coat of paint.

5. While paint was still wet, I carefully removed the FrogTape. Then let the paint dry.
