How to do Custom Lettering without a Fancy Machine

I keep seeing so many amazing projects that people are making using their Cricut, Sillouette or other "fancy" machines. While I love the results (and would definitely love to get one of those machines myself at some point), I often use an "old school" technique to achieve similar results. http://www.cometogetherkids.com/2011/05/how-to-do-custom-lettering-without.html

July 26, 2010 On my the hunt for objects repurposed into cool things for two garden rooms and a garden we are doing for the September Stamford, CT Designer Show House, I came across these teacups and creamers upcycled into bird feeders . Working with the theme “Conversing with Nature: A Creative Garden Retreat,” interior designer, Victoria Lyon , and I are designing two rooms that will serve as a potting shed as well as a place to develop creative ideas for the garden, paint, sketch, read garden books, and otherwise lose one’s self in imaginative thought.

Anybody can throw some dried pinecones in a wicker basket and call it the Christmas season, but some people like to give this staid decorating tactic a kick in the pants.
