Brag Board Tutorial

I decided to make a tutorial for the couple of people who asked about this - here goes:

Supplies needed:

1x8 piece of pine (mine is cut to 16 in. for this one - the first one I made was 20 in)

Mod Podge

Paint

3 sheets of coordinating scrapbook paper - 2 for the board 1 for the clothespins

Ink pad

Paper Trimmer

Sponge Brush

Hot glue gun

Vinyl Lettering

 Step 1: Paint the edges and back of your sanded board

Step 2: While the paint is drying cut 2 sheets of scrapbook paper to fit the front of the board - these were 7 3/4 in. x 8 in.

Step 3:  Apply mod podge to the front of your board

then smooth your paper on

Make sure to get out any wrinkles or bubbles - let that dry.

Step 4: Distress the edges with a coordinating ink pad - I used a dark brown.

Step 5:  Apply a layer of mod podge over the top to seal it.

Step 6:  While your board is drying - trim coordinating paper to cover clothespins.  I used 4 for this size of board.

then mod podge the paper onto your clothespins.

Step 7: Add your vinyl brag board lettering

Step 8: Glue the clothespins onto the board using a hot glue gun.  I spaced mine every 4 inches.

Then add a hook to the back so you can hang it on the wall.

DONE!
