What I’ve Been Lettering

Lately I’ve been seizing any possible opportunity to practice my lettering. Here’s what has come out of that:

The next two letterings were also part of #HOMwork. I lettered them with my Wacom tablet instead of on paper which was a challenge for me, but something I’d like to get better at.

Lies(This is usually not true, just FYI).

 

Trophy3(This is always true for me.)

 


 

Another opportunity that I’ve been blessed with is getting to design wedding invitations for my friend. I lettered the names of the bride and groom using watercolors.

I also got to address the envelopes (SO FUN!).

I’ll be posting pictures of the full invitation and other pieces from the wedding soon!

 


 

And finally, I use lettering to express gratitude for things that I love.

Chalk Board Wall

My husband and I recently bought our first house and I’ve been filling my spare time with house projects. My favorite project so far is my chalk board wall. I painted a wall in the center of the house with chalk board paint from Lowes. I did two coats of paint and it worked well. To completely erase chalk I have to use a wet rag, but the paint has been holding up really well.
