I cut out the cattails with vinyl using floral 2 font and cut the letters out of wallpaper scraps which you can get for free from you local hardware or paint store. You have to use border paste so it's a bit more work but every little bit helps.

I have also gone to the sign shops and asked for their vinyl scraps. They usually give them to me for FREE! They are usually limited on their colors...but free is a great price! I'm not sure if anyone else will do this...but it's worth a shot!

This is really beautiful no matter what it cost

Did you use picture mat board for the background?

Great job all around!

thank you all for the nice comments
not sure what you mean by picture mat board but I put it right on the wall if that's what you mean

oh, I thought you might have framed it like a picture.

No, it's a blank wall that goes down the basement stairs. It's actually 3' x 5' . It took a bit of piecing together. Whew!!
