My DIY Aisle Runner w/ pics

Boy this was a lot of work, but well worth it. I ran out of black marker so I just have to fill that in. What do you think?

Wow- that came out great. I was thinking of doing this, but I'm affraid it wont come out as planned. What kind of markers did you use? Did you use stencils or free-hand for the letters?

I printed the saying and monogram on Microsoft Word at the largest font possble that would allow the letters to stay on one page. Then I went to Micheal's and purchased black, brown sharpies and a pink marker (which was actually better than the sharpies - I have to look at the brand name) I taped the letters to the floor exactly as I wanted them to appear on the aisle runner. Then I taped downthe aisle runner to the floor laid down and began tracing in each letter . I took a few breaks because my neck started hurting.
