Knife Block Re-Vamp

Hello Hello!!!

We are moments away from getting a closing date! YAY us! AND they want to close in a matter of 2-3 weeks. SO big things will be happening here!

This weekend I worked on several DIY projects, one of which was re-vamping our knife block.  It wasn't ugly - it was just.....well, boring!  SO The Husband and I .... well actually he picked the color.  We bought some spray paint that would match the color scheme we will have going in the main area of the house.

We bought the Krylon Fusion Spray paint -- it has the primer already mixed into the paint.  I coated the block with 2 coats of color. 

While it was drying, I cut out the flourished 'W' with my cricut.  I cut out 2 because we don't know exactly where we will be placing the knife block. (2 - one for each side)

I used my little roller and a $0.50 messed up custom color sample paint (you can find this in the 'clearance' section at your Lowe's or Home Depot for SUPER cheap!!!)

no the color is NOT gray - it is a sage green color...

After the monograms dried, I pulled out my Mod Podge and stuck it to each side of the block.

And VIOLA!

All done! Easy-peasy! And it gives the block a whole new, SASSY look =)
