Let me introduce you to Mr. Ed! This wall art project was rather simple. The two boards used were old matching twin headboards found for FREE on craigslist!

I turned each headboard on its side and painted the background with two coats of Behr Off White. Then using a silhouette image found from a google search, I traced the image onto the boards and filled it in with two coats of a custom mixed matte black color. After some light distressing, I finished it off with a coat of Annie Sloan Soft Wax. I think I’m going to hang him in the playroom/schoolroom once I get everything set. Loving Mr. Ed! He’s simple, yet makes a big statement!
Lots of love,
Mary
