Today I want to show off my new Address Subway Art – I LOVE it!! And I have a tutorial for you on down…
I was able to review the vinyl from Say It On the Wall – and they’re awesome. I had something specific in mind and they were able to make it for me. They sent this to me to try out. And the shipping – wowza – lightning fast!! I know I have a Silhouette that can cut vinyl, but it can’t cut something this large. Here are some other things you can find in their shop:

So anyways, back to the tutorial on the Large Address Subway Art. I wanted a chopped up effect, so I used these 3 boards found in our garage. It was actually 2 boards but I cut one in half. Then I put them in order so the wood grain goes up and down on the top and bottom one and across on the middle one. To hold all 3 boards together, I used another smaller board. I just covered it in wood glue and stuck it to the back of the boards as shown. The weights pushed down on the boards while the glue dried:
I thought about staining it, but I am digging the raw-wood look. It’s now hanging in our basement. And it makes me want to revamp our whole basement. Starting with clearing off that shelf that it hangs over….

I love subway art and this one’s great!! Close to home too… I used to live in Andover, KS, and am currently only about 3 miles down the road in east Wichita! However, since I spent most of my “growing up” years in Augusta, Andover was our big rival. LOL Fun to see others who are familiar with my stomping grounds!!
