DIY Holiday Signs

Because everybody can use a healthy dose of encouragement and fun, here are some of the signs I’ve been working on. More hand lettering, chalk board lettering, and plenty of mermaids. Check them out!

DIY wood sign pallets

I found some wood panelling on the cheap to put together, tongue and groove style. They make excellent, big canvases. The one on the left is stained with grey minwax, the one on the right was painted white. I found the all white was easiest, visually, as a backdrop so I made more of them like that.

For this one,  I painted the board with farmhouse white milk paint.

Then stenciled the letters with grey paint. Then I sanded the whole thing and sealed it with gold-flecked furniture wax.

Mermaid Sign

This one is definitely hard to read, but my favorite. “A salty fisherman & a beautiful mermaid live here”

This isn’t a hook, just a metal accent.

I’ll probably trace over the lettering here one more time, or outline it.
