A board for a friend who is a Brady Bunch fan..
The board is actually a drawer front that was rescued from a job site dumpster. I used the rail/sled method for the carving.
It is painted with paint pens and brush..

Nice sign Buddy. Whats that saying, one mans junk is another mans treasure. You took someone junk and turned it into a treasure. That board got new life and will be aorund another 100 years.

gcioffi,

I first sprayed a clear lacquer coat on (2 coats) and then used the paint pens (Elmer's opaque paint pens). The ones I have are the medium tip and would not fit into the small areas so I had to use a small brush. Hope this helps you out and thanks for the good comments..
