How to Make Scrabble Easter Crosses
As I rifled through the shelves, I ran across these unpainted wooden crosses and I thought they'd be a perfect gift project for Easter.

The last time I was at Dollar Tree I saw wooden crosses there too so check out what they have.
The first thing I did was to paint the crosses with a new color I'm trying today called Brook by Fusion Mineral Paint.
Brook looks like a pretty greenish-blue Spring egg so it's perfect for Easter.
As usual, I dry my projects by the fan to speed up the drying process.
When the paint dried I sanded the edges slightly to distress the crosses.
I made a similar project at Christmas time... DIY Scrabble Tree and Cross.
With all the tiles I have, somehow I don't have any "H's" and I always seem to need one!
I wonder if you can buy just H's someplace?
I used hot glue to attach the letters to the crosses then used Fusion Mineral Paint's tough coat to seal the crosses and the letters.
Next, I attacked another large stash I just acquired... hardware knobs... lots of them!
A friend told me about a store going out of business, they were throwing them away so I was there to catch.
These knobs, door handles, and about 50 cabinet doors are my future upcycled projects... so stay tuned!
