I saw a version of this project last week on the blog Bargain Hoot. Immediately I stored it away in my brain. Her project used a blank background and a bigger phrase. It is really cute, you should go and check it out. For my version I chose to use photos of my boys, edited to black and white, for the background instead of a blank white page.
Then I picked things I wanted to say and searched out the needed scrabble tiles.
Another difference in my process... I did not worry about right angles and I didn't have scotch tape, so I just individually glued and placed the tiles on. I managed to eyeball it pretty straight. This is that whole fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants part of me.
This was a super easy and quick project...you could totally still pull it off today.
A perfect little homemade Father's Day gift.

Do you put glass on these? I was just curious if the tiles were to thick or how you did it. Thanks!
