Count Your Blessings

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I wanted to write out all of the wonderful things we’ve been blessed with.  I came up with this blessings board…a neat way to see day to day our many blessings and to write and rewrite them with the family. 
I started with a plane wooden frame…took the glass out and taped straight across so that the words would be straight. Note: be careful with the glass! I cut myself a few times just moving it around.

I took the backing of the frame and covered it with burlap.

Made some burlap/fabric florets and voila!

It’s so nice to see all the things we’re blessed with and even more nice getting input from the family day to day.  Use a chalk marker to make the “blessings” stand out!

Happy Thanksgiving!
