We had all of this barnwood laying around that Brent had picked up with some friends. It had mostly just been collecting ants in our backyard but I was prepared to repurpose it.
After cutting a board into three equal pieces, I used a Kreg Jig to fasten the boards together from behind. Hobby Lobby sells pre-cut wood letters in different sizes and fonts, which are easy to paint. I painted mine with a coat of blue and then rubbed some dark glaze over the top. For the small lettering, I used oil rubbed bronze spray paint.

Mom loved it and it hangs over her fireplace to this day.
Total cost was $22.
Nice, Heidi!
