Making Zinc Letters & Numbers For The Holidays
by

These zinc-like letters and numbers are a super quick and easy project for the holidays. And they have that industrial look that is so popular right now! I made the numbers 2 and 5 to represent December 25th, but you could also do a word - JOY, PEACE, NOEL, SNOW, etc.
Materials Needed:
Cardboard numbers - I bought them at Hobby Lobby ($2.49 ea)
Small paintbrush with bristles
Craft paint in dark black - I used Americana brand's Lamp Black
Craft paint in gray - I used Americana brand's Zinc
Craft paint in metallic silver - I used DecorArt brand's Dazzling Metallics in Shimmering Silver
