And although you used to have to spend big bucks for one, you now have a lot more options! So if you’re one of the many of us who have a letterboard or two (or eight) then read the rest of this post to see how a simple letterboard hack can transform your wall! If you’re not a fan of letterboards, you might want to skip this post—I won’t judge.
using letterboards in home decor
When Letterfolk opened for business in 2015 it brought back the vintage letterboard and gave it new life. What had once been used in diners, office buildings, and school settings was now considered trendy. Letterboards quickly became a staple in many homes across the world, becoming a fun and popular way to share funny quotes and important moments with friends, family, and strangers on the internet. In fact, if you’re reading this blog post you probably have at least one that you use for home decor on a regular basis.

letterboard hack for a letterboard wall
When we moved into our house I knew I wanted a letterboard wall. I already had three letterboards of various sizes and I wanted a spot where I could have them all hanging together. Our front entry was one of the first spots in our house to get some wall decor. What started as a wall of three in different sizes has now grown to include fun, colored square boards that I switch out with the quotes and seasons!

The small 10 × 10″ letterboards are perfect additions for the letterboard hack. Simply slide a small nail or brad between your letterboard rows (the same way you would a letter). Then you can hang a small letterboard from a larger letterboard, creating a layered effect! The fun colored boards from Felt Like Sharing are perfect for this letterboard hack. They come in so many different shades and even boards with multi-colored stripes. You can purchase directly from their site or through Amazon.
