I'm not as fancy as the person who made that one [nor am I patient enough to make it look perfect] so tweaked it just a bit.
First, I had to find a spot to put this craft [my house is small and therefore I can't make lots and lots of cute little crafts to fill it with...I have to limit my crafts-so this one is special since it gets a spot in my house;)], so I found my spot, measured and went to The Home Depot (love that store). I bought a 1"x4" piece of wood for around $2.
Then, I headed over to my grandpa's house who is so kind to help me cut all the pieces [he is amazing and has nearly every piece of machinery to make any word crafts]. We cut 2 10" pieces, 4 4", 2 5" and a couple 3". Then, since I needed to blocks to be approximately 16"wide total, we had to cut each block to 2 3/4".

| Blocks cut and ready for paint. I laid them out how I wanted them to look when finished... It took me a couple minutes to figure out the layout, but I liked this one the best. |
 |
| Next: painting and sanding. I had all the paint already so that didn't cost me anything. I painted them, let them dry and sanded the edges. |
 |
| then I added vinyl letters that I cut from my Cricut. Unfortunately I don't have many fonts, but I thought this one worked okay. I added some acorns for effect. |
Total cost: $2.13
Total time: 2 hours
