This week I made the cute knock-off Pottery Barn moss covered letter that was featured in our notebook (circa 03.16.11 entry) and on the blog, “Be Sweet.” I absolutely love it and want to hit the craft store to get a larger letter to hang on our front door. This one is decorating a pantry door and I hung it in front of a broken frame I found in my basement on an angle. I plan to spray paint the frame black, but happened to be covering letters and marbleizing eggs at the same time. Who says this mama can’t multitask?
Proving that I can mess up just about any craft, I hot glued my finger to the “C” because the moss was a bit more aerated than I realized. My husband says I am an “XXTREME HOT GLUE GUNNER.” He also makes an X in front of his face when he says this to me. I blame the glue gun. Regardless, super cute project that cost $11 to create!
Have you tried anything from our featured notebook entries? We would love to hear what projects you tried and how they worked out for your family!
Your moss-covered initial looks great! I like the fact that it doesn’t look as flat as the others I’ve seen. The frame looks nice in gold, too. : )

Salted Caramel Ice Cream? Just died and went to heaven! Will be my first shot at making ice cream but looks worth it especially since I love ice cream, and salted caramel.
