help! quick... need ideas for DH's birthday gift

[ChickieShannon]

DH has been working on converting the garage to his *nekkid room* (if you've seen *Failure to Launch* then you know what I'm referring to ;)). Anyways, basically it's the gameroom and I'm wanting to make a big canvas for it that says *The Nekkid Room*. I don't want it cheesy. I want it like an old pub sign or something. I want a billiards theme since he has a poker table, air hockey/pool table, and dart board, maybe more specifically poker theme??? Any ideas on papers, embellishments, etc.? More specifically any of you DFW Freaks for SURE know what LSS's might have something? Thanks!!! I'm going to shop after I pickup DD from school so sorry for the time crunch! lol

Love The Nekkid Room idea...that was so funny in that movie. I have no ideas because it's late and I'm tired but I like the idea of it!

[ChickieShannon]

Okay, well I went out tonight and got a 15x30 canvas. Then I bought four 5x5 canvases and am going to stamp on each one one of the suits of cards (diamond, spade, etc.). I'm going to hang those along the bottom of the large canvas, I think. Then I got some giant chipboard letters to spell out *nekkid room*. Not sure yet what all I'm doing but I'm fixing to start playing. :)
