Mantel decor

And

I'm not sure if the cardboard really looks like white-washed wood, but I think the "nails" gives it that look.
The letters are made with book print.  It's hard to tell with this photo.

I wanted to decorate our mantel since we moved here and finally overcame the procrastination monster and did it!  The JOY sign is an up cycle that you know I love to do and the "subway" art is faux made from cardboard, paint, and the cricut.  I love how they turned out!

    It looks fabulous! Love all the recycled signs that you created and how you put it all together. Also like that you still let Jackie Robinson shine through. ;)
