There is just something about chalkboards-style lettering that seems so cheerful and happy to me. Maybe it’s the carefree loops in the semi-cursive letters or the little details that make the message seem extra-special. Whatever it is, I love it, and even more so, I love trying to re-create it for myself. Enter this simple DIY chalkboard welcome sign!
Some men like to display memorabilia of their favorite sports team. Some men are all about their fishing gear. Somewhere along the line, my dad developed an admiration for lighthouses. And it’s become sort of a family joke ever since.

Welcome to another Wednesday edition of our Creative Spark Link Party! There were so many clever projects and delicious recipes shared last week that I had a really hard time choosing which ones to feature today! I can’t wait to see what you have ready to share with us today!
A friend of mine was recently cleaning out her craft stash and thought I might be able to use a few things, including a small collection of metal letters. I’m never one to turn down free supplies, even when I don’t have an immediate use for them. This could mean I have hoarder tendencies… Anyway, a few weeks ago, while exploring a new shop called Elm & Iron in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, I landed on the perfect DIY for some of my new goodies—an Industrial Rustic Monogram Sign.
A wall shelf is a fantastic DIY project for a beginner builder, but also makes an easy build you can complete in a weekend if you’re looking for a quick project! Read for an easy-to-follow tutorial to learn how to make your own wall shelf with hooks. You can easily customize the size to suit your space and needs.
This DIY wall shelf with hooks was fun to build, though some of the logistics threw us for a few loops (more on that in the step-by-step directions below). But the results are pretty fantastic! I did most of the build work on this myself (huzzah!) so that means if I can do it, you can, too!
