I had everyone over for Craft Day for December's craft to make this cute Christmas nic nac. I actually thought this one up all on my own without leaning on my mom, Misty, or anyone! I was so proud of myself. Grandma, Cathy, Carol, Velda, and Misty were able to make it. We missed the rest of you!
You can hang it horizontally...
OR vertically and it looks fabulous both ways.
Carol ACTUALLY decided on a color for her sled, believe it or not! Haha!
Grandma commented she is "a dabber" instead of "a stroker," like Grandpa, when it comes to painting. I know I got Grandma's "dabbing" gene. My mom and Cathy were the only ones that confessed they were "strokers." Figures! Grandpa is their father. The whole subject gave us a chuckle or two.
Misty, Melinda, and Grandma - Can you tell we were having fun?

Instructions to make the nic nac:
1. Purchase wooden sled at Robert's Crafts (while supplies last) for $2.99, 50% off. Woohoo!
2. Find the vinyl letters. (I had Spencer's cousin, Amy, make these vinyl signs for me on her vinyl letter machine. I'm sure you all know someone that does, but if you don't and you are interested, just let me know and I will order more from Amy.)
3. Paint the sled
4. Sand the edges (if desired)
5. Lay the vinyl letters on the sled and rub on with a credit card
6. Walla! You're done!
