Over the last few weeks I have been slowly trying to update our home with a different style and decor. I was just ready for something different. I love the new farmhouse style decor that is pretty popular right now and very expensive. With not much wiggle room in the budget to splurge on fancy new items I grabbed some scrap wood, paint, and cut out some decals to make my own version of the wood number signs. I had every thing already on hand, so this project didn't cost me a thing! Which is fantastic and perfect for my budget.

5. Paint over the entire front with white paint. I purposely only used one coat and did not over saturate it I wanted a more worn/rustic touch to it. Let dry.
