DIY: Train Depot Sign

A co-worker/friend of mine wanted to create a valance for her boys' room who love trains.
She found this online; hence wanted to re-create it.  I offered to do so as I had all the supplies and it was an easy feat once the stencils were printed and cut.

All I needed was white gesso, black spray paint, stencils, tape, and sandpaper.
After the initial go, I realized I didn't measure the spacing properly so had to paint over the "train" and re-spray paint.


The following was results before touching up:
And then the final result after touch-up and sanding areas.  I also shaved down the "I" a little.  It's amazing what you can do with gesso.
