My Scrabble Board Project

Don't forget to stop by and Like my Facebook Page! DIY Vintage Chic.

Words with Friends is going crazy and there's a sudden popularity with using scrabble letters as art so I thought I'd make an art piece that works for us in the house.

{You can now purchase a PDF file of the scrabble board at my Etsy shop}

Here are my materials:
Scrabble game; old Dictionary ($1.00 at Goodwill!), magnets,
24"x24" sheet metal, frame

I glued the magnets to the back of each scrabble letter

I used some Mod Podge to glue some dictionary
pages to the sheet metal

One layer of pages done. I added a 2nd layer to make sure all
of the sheet metal was covered.

I created my own scrabble board and printed it out.
{You can purchase a Vintage Scrabble Board PDF, Large Format Board
and Custom Scrabble Tiles from my Etsy Shop}
I then went over all of the pages
with a coat of Mod Podge to protect the pages.

I bought a frame you can put together yourself. It's a little thin
so I may still look for a 2'x2' frame or maybe make my own.

Hang it up!

Then write your own message or have an ongoing game.
