I finally finished my wood sign! It took me forever to decide what I wanted it to say or if I wanted to use paper letters or vinyl. I decided on a simple one word phrase with vinyl. It definitely is inspired by the one I saw at Shanty 2 Chic!
I don't have a power saw so I had to wait until I could utilize my handy dandy dad to cut the wood for me.The materials used were:
2-planks of wood (whatever size you want) cut in half
wood stain in walnut
wood glue
silhouette SD and light gray vinyl
Once the boards were cut in half, I glued them together, one on top of the other. When the glue dried, I took a wash cloth and wiped on the stain. I used 2 coats but that is all to your preference. Once it was all dry I added my word. Seriously my simplest project yet and I love the way it turned out!
So cute! I love this and will definitely be using it as inspiration. Raw woods are so practical and perfect right now. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the finish and the beautiful wood. The word is one of my favorite.
DeleteThanks for every other great post. The place else could anyone get that type of info in such a perfect manner of writing? I've a presentation next week, and I am on the search for such info.

I look forward to following you. How did you do the word on the wood. Did stencil or freehand? I can never stencils to work. I'm definitely not a craft person. Thislooks incredible. I want to learn.
ReplyDeletethank you everyone for your sweet comments :)
ReplyDeletefor the word, I used my silhouette SD and cut the vinyl out with that. hope that helps! :)
