An altered letter rack!

Hi there, been busy today, in between my sunbathing sessions in the garden I altered this wooden letter rack. Its a gift for my boyfriends mum for her birthday!

I painted it white, used some patterned papers and cut out some hearts. The letters 'mum' are small wooden letters that I covered in diamond glaze and dunked in glitter!!! I went back over the top with more diamond glaze just so it doesn't go everywhere, like glitter has a habit of doing!!!

Whilst glittering up the letters I also managed to glitter my carpet, knocked over the whole little pot!!! Oopss!!
