I am so ready for Spring! What about you?
Today I will show you how I used a .75 picture from Dollar General and turned it into this adorable tiered tray mini wood sign PERFECT for a Spring tiered tray. I love this mini wood sign. They're so simple to make and so stinking cute.
When I started my DIY adventure I was making large wood signs. They were big, bulky, and cost a lot to ship because of the weight. I really love making these mini wood sign. They are small and easy to work with and the shipping is almost nothing.
Step 1.
-
I removed the metal Family from the picture and sat it to the side. I will be using it for another project later.
- I removed the paper from the picture using rubbing alcohol and a scrapper.
Step 2.
- I used white chalk paint and painted the picture. It took 2 coats for an even coverage.
Step 3.
- I used Tumbling Tower Blocks from Dollar Tree and Americana Antiquing Wax to create the frame.
Step 4.
- After the wax dried I glued the Tumbling Tower Blocks to the sign with hot glue.
Step 5.
- I created this cut file using Inkscape and then uploaded the file to Design Space.
- I sized the cut file to fit my sign and cut the vinyl using my Cricut.
- I layered the vinyl on the transfer tape and applied it to my sign.
Step 6.
- I applied Gloss Mod Podge to the sign to give it a finished look and to help protect it.
