Love Is Unmeasurable Sign

I bought a large lot of rulers from eBay. I should have just driven about ten minutes down the road to pick them up, because after I bought them I realized it was from someone nearby.  They were only a dollar for 10 rulers.   I wanted to create this sign below and make a heart from the rulers. I am not so great with the jig saw, so Rob agreed to help me out with that part. I used a piece of extra counter top from our built ins, a wooden word cut out for the Love from Michaels, and then sticker letters for the rest.  The entire project cost $2.50 approximately. 

Another simple, sweet and inexpensive Valentine project that I think I can leave out for a little longer too.  I paired it with my Ombre Decoration in my family room.

 Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Oh that is so sweet! I love it! I'm kind of afraid of the jig saw myself! I dont' have a steady enough hand!

    That's a wonderful project. I hate it when I get so excited over a purchase that after the shipping is paid you realise it was so close.

    This is just gorgeous!

    This caught my eye on A Diamond in the Stuff link party. Very cool idea. I have a bunch of yard sticks that I was looking to use. Maybe I could do something similar. Great job. I am hosting a new link party. I would love it if you would link up. http://www.ifitsnotbaroquedesignblog.blogspot.com/
