Title: Metal wall letters....
Post by: BEG on November 20, 2008, 10:09:44 AM

So.....I was watching "My House Is Worth What?" on HGTV the other day and they were showing a gay couples house.  They had two different large metal fonts in each of their first initial hanging on the wall.  It looked really really cool and I want some.  I want a K & J.  I don't want them to match, I want them to look really old and rusty, perhaps with paint on them.  Anyone know where I could find something like that?

One of the main reasons I don't watch HGTV much anymore. Too many fags represented.

Ignore the gay people and help me find the metal letters I want.

Google is you friend.  This is a fairly small town here, but I found two places that do ornamental iron work.  There are some online places that do custom work.

But I want to go out and buy them today (can you picture me stomping my feet?).  Like at Crate and Barrel or something (they don't have them by the way).

Oh well, I was going to give you the name and all of a local artist that does metal sculptures and other stuff.......but I guess that won't really do..... what with the foot stomping and all.
