Under the Mistletoe

I really wanted to hang mistletoe in our house this year. My mother always had some hanging in our entryway when we were growing up. There were a few years where I had some, but one year when I pulled it out, it looked bad, so I threw it out and haven’t had any since. It was while I was looking around for this mistletoe that this idea evolved to make a sign to hang in our entry way.

It was super simple to make, I just cleaned up an old fence board, painted it with some extra homemade chalk paint I had on hand and printed out the words in a font and size I liked. I used carbon paper to transfer the words with a pencil and painted over them with a small angled brush using Ceramcoat acrylic paint in the color Charcoal. I’ve had this hook I found at the thrift shop for some time and knew I was going to use it for something fun some day.
