Once your paint is dry, use sand paper to distress your box. Focus on sanding down the edges, corners, and a little bit all over to give your box a more rustic look.

Use your sand paper to sand down the backsides of your letter tiles. This will help them adhere better with the wood glue.

Cut your burlap into a strip that’s about 2.75″ wide. Then fold the strip into thirds and place it gently into your box.

But what about the inside? Fear not! I’ve got an idea for that, too!
