my dad actually does this in his spare time... but he cuts the letters out him self... paints them wat ever u like, but eg he done one for my son HARLEN he made a big wooden H aprox 45cm wide and maybe 65 high painted it red the stuck his name down the side in dark blue... he does this in wat ever colour and wat ever name any one has/knows... they r really sweet! let me know if any1 wants too see or details to order!
I've done this a couple of times for friends and my own DD. I've uploaded a pic for you in the Gallery...just go to the top of your BellyBelly page and there is a tab called Gallery...I placed it under the craft and creations folder. Sorry not sure how to put link in here.
You could also just google name plaques or wooden letters under images and you'll get loads of examples.
I looked at doing this as a stall / business idea as well but think too many people are doing it - but it's heaps of fun.
I make these letters for all my friends when they have kids. I've also sold a few too. I buy the letters plain and paint them a range of shades. Usually pinks for girls and blues for boys but each letter is always a a little diff. I ahve also done greens, purples, lemon's and a mixture. I then stick on a range of decorations .ie ribbon, stars, hearts, buttons or flowers and polka dots that I paint on. I love doing it and people appreciate it because it's something that is unique and special for each name I make.
