Hey Friends!
Today I'm combining
a few of my favorite things...
words from my savior
and
yah, paint;
not like the two are that close
on the important-o-meter,
but they go together in my world.
Boy, do I need reminders around
about right living.
I guess God knew that when he said
"Tie them (my commands) to your hands,
wear them on your forehead as reminders.
Write them on the doorposts of your house
and on your gates" Deuteronomy 6: 8-9.
So, how about putting them on your wall.
Build a box frame
with 1/4" underlayment
and furring strips.
Put a wash of brown acrylic front and back.
Brush on a coat of white.
I like to use Olympia Paint and Primer in one
from Lowes. Color - Crumb Cookie.
This piece measures 24" x 24".
The white stripes are 4".
Colored stripes are 3".
The pencil shade on the back of the lettering
will transfer when you press from the front
with a pen.
Can't wait to paint more verses.
Hope you enjoy making one for your home.
I'm also selling these on my Etsy.
Thanks for visiting my blog!
Much appreciation,
Deb

Beautiful sign and one of my very favorite verses. We like the shema too (Deut 6 passage) and it is the theme verse for our homeschooling. Would love for you to share at Fridays Unfolded!
