Nice! Looks perfect.

How did you attach the lettering on and what kind of foam is it?

What a clever idea with the reflective.
You really did a great job, your friend is going to love that.
I also like to see things that were made by hand.
Thanks for showing us!
Love....Jill

I attached the lettering with 3m double sided foam tape. Im not exactly sure what type of foam it is. It's 1/2" and has a paper or cardstock face. It's not that Pink insulation foam that you see on the table. Although after I was done I was thinking if I could of used that and painted it white.

update:

I gave it to him a few days after christmas. Thats as soon as I can get together with him for this. He didn't know I got him something for christmas. I came by to give his kids their christmas presents. I brought it in his house with a painters tarp over it. I unveild it and he was stunned. Literly stunned. He just stood there for about 10-15 minuites staring at it and saying "wow" in a calm low voice. He was speachless. It was the reaction i wanted. He loved it and he is going to hang it above his bed. Yes, the wife is allowing it. haha.

Great christmas!

That is great!

He does know that there is no such thing as Santa, the Easter bunny and the Cubs winning the World Series, right? HAHAHA

I love it!!

been to Wrigley only 8 or 10 times... but some of the fondest memories... and several years of my youth as a diehard Cubs fan... never gave up on them (till 08 sorta... )

Ya done good!
