As we rely on God so much when dealing with daily struggles both big and small, Nate and I have been wanting to put a bible verse in our kitchen to remind us daily of God's awesomeness and to never forget who controls our lives.
There are so many I love, but we went with Nate's chosen verse, Proverbs 3: 5-6.
My verse: Jeremiah 29:11
Or
Philippians 4: 6-7
Isaiah 40: 31
Galatians 5: 22-23
Psalms 37: 4-6
Psalm 55: 22
Psalm 34: 18
Psalm 46: 1
Proverbs 4: 7
2 Corinthians 4: 8-9
Galatians 6:9
Joshua 24: 15
There are SO many methods for making these quote boards.
Here is mine:
1. I picked up a cool board at Ikea for $4. You can find these in the clearance section. They are cupboard doors from pieces of furniture. Wood is wood. I have also been collecting old cupboards that I find at Re-stor that fit my decor. You can always paint it a different color, too.
2. I chose a font from my Cricut and got to work cutting out the letters. I used mostly the same font, but made some important words larger. Some people use stickers. While this is probably easier than cutting out the letters on the Cricut, I like that I don't have to commit to the layout until I am absolutely sure I like the way it looks. Even then, in the process of adhering them to the board, letters get moved around.
3. I grabbed Matte Mod Podge. I soaked the board with the adhesive and placed the letters. Then added another layer of the adhesive over top.
4. It's tedious work for sure. However, the result is my very own personalized bible verse made the way I want it for the cost of the board $4 plus I guess the paper and Mod Podge, which I already have on hand.
