How pretty! You did a great job on it, and make it look so easy. Love how you added the stenciling pattern in the B. Would make a great house warming gift.

ReplyDeleteI love it!! So unique. Is it weatherproof?
ReplyDeleteI did an ombre door mat with spray paint and tape once, but this looks a lot cleaner with just using paint. I just adore the pattern you used for the initial!
