Hey guys! I know there’s always quite a bit of time between posts, but this one was worth the wait! I’ve been getting into doing some hand painting on signs, I love drawing and so I recently thought I’d give painting a try. These signs were easy to make thanks to some helpful posts I’d seen on Pinterest.
I started out with just a small piece of scrap wood, I’m obsessed with trees and have always loved sketching them, but haven’t painted them before. It was quite a learning curve! Below is the photo of my first attempt.
I was inspired by this photo on Pinterest, when I was asked to paint a sign for my mom, I was very happy with how it turned out!
As you can see, I’ve started to get the hang of it.
I’ve also played around with scrap pieces of wood, I did some Christmas paintings to make the house more festive!
This sign needed some TLC! It was out dated and the cool hardware didn’t even show because of dark brown paint. My brother asked me to give it a new look...
And finally, this a sign from yesterday’s craft night with some family members. I’m starting to get better at pine branches, I think it’s just a matter of more practise :)
