I found these Place and Time fall unfinished wood letters at Joann Fabrics last week. They were 50% off, or $4.99.
I had an idea for an easy fall project!

Here is my easy Fall Letter project, hanging on the side garage door.

Even if you don't have many fancy tools or carpentry skills, this is a pretty easy project for beginners.
