We just added a new product to our site, a wooden princess tiara. This is a great way to accent your wooden letters. While we were cutting this I had a great idea, “Princess”. I will post pictures when we finish painting it. Its going to be cute for a little girls room.

Just wanted to post a couple of pictures of our framed letter kits we cut today. In the picture the letter “B” is cut out in the storybook font. The back of the frame is recessed to allow the backing to fit flush. It is very simple to decorate by wrapping the backing in fabric.

Well, we had a busy day cutting today, which is a good thing. Here are just some of the wooden letters we cut today. The first one, “SOPHIA”, is cutout in the Ravie font. I really like this font. “Luke” is in the Jester font. It is the first name we have cut in this font and I think we will be adding it to our font list. “Mia” is in our best selling font, curlz. The last photo “kaya” and “kyle” are also in the curlz font, I didnt ask but I wonder if they are twins. Thats it for now.

Here are some decorative wooden letters that we painted for a co-worker. They were cutout in the Ravie font. We first started drawing lines that would split the wooden letters in half. We then proceeded with painting the lighter blue. After the light blue was completed dry we taped off the horizontal line and began painting the dark blue portion. To paint the vertical lines we used the painters tape again but used two peices to form the smaller lines. We finished the letters by applying some ribbon and charms around the horizontal line.

Tip: When painting light and dark colors start with the lighter color; you can easily paint over the lighter color with the darker shade.

Hello and welcome to CustomWoodenLetters.com’s Creative Corner. This is our first blog entry and we feel it’s a good time to let you know our vision of where this blog will be going.

I have been cutting wooden letters for about 3 years and my wife has been painting them. We were only doing this for family and friends but decided to offer these wooden letters online. We are currently offering unpainted letters but hope this blog will inspire you to paint the letters.

In this blog we want to offer some tips and tricks that will make your painting fun and exciting. We will also post completed projects to give you some ideas on how to finish your letters or how to incorporate them into your baby nursery designs. More to come later.
