So I had grand plans for this tutorial.
But “this tutorial” had other plans for me.
Sometimes I receive “craft visions”, if you will.
And as I played at the park with Baby W and he stumbled upon a fabulous pile of beach wood,I thought:
I have just the craft for these treasures.
So I busted out the glue gun and made an afternoon of it.
I was so pleased with my end result.
I even took a bajillion pictures of my new project.
Then…the hubby got home,
and casually asked:
What inspired you to make a Mercedes Benz logo?
Don’t be silly hun, that’s a peace sign, I assured him.
And then I glanced over,
and much to my surprise,
the hubby was right.
{which means I was wrong}
Ugh, I hate when that happens.
So this means I will be adding the missing line to my peace sign and providing you with this tutorial at a future date–unless some of you were anxious to sport the Mercedes logo in your decor theme.
Peace Out yo!

LOL – that is too funny! Although I wouldn't have pegged it as a Mercedes Benz logo either. I didn't even notice the other line missing! I think it's a nice job – can't wait to see the tutorial!

Super cute and hilarious at the same time! If we had a Mercedes then I'd totally rock this in our house! P.s. Today i saw two Mercedes cars in front of me and thought of your "mess up" peace sign and had a great chuckle! Love drift wood!

One of my husband's major clients is Mercedes Benz so this made me laugh out loud! You should post it on the Mercedez Benz USA site. That is awesome!
