String Crafts

I recently saw this idea on Pinterest, and decided I would give it a try. Turned out pretty well if I do say so myself. After I bought all the supplies, this only took about 30-45 minutes! Sorry the picture isn't very good!
First, create a document that has words in desired size! (you may need to print one letter per page, or go to an office max)  Print, and cut out! Tape down the design. 
Put 5/8 in. nails around all letters about 1/2 an inch apart 
After you've done that, Spray paint the entire board a desired color, including the nails. 


Tie a piece of "friendship bracelet string" to one nail, and weave back and forth. It makes it look more interesting if you do not have any sort of pattern, and also it you make sure you have gone to every nail.
Add different colors by just switching the string! Great project for any age! 

Here is another one I did for my friend! Its hard to see here, but it somewhat looks like camo!
