Because I have never made a sign, I thought I should attempt a little one before I move on to the big bathroom sign I have planned. I took a scrap piece of unpainted board from my bench project and dry brushed it with several colors.
I made a stencil with my Cricut.
Added a little dark brown to the red and painted the stencil.
I probably should have left it alone, but I decided to sand it a bit.
I kind of like the before I sanded better, but it’s ok since it is a practice sign and learning experience.
Yep, I have an ugly ceiling that I am not motivated enough to do anything about. Oh the things I could get done if I didn’t work outside the home. At least that’s what I tell myself.
If I find the motivation tomorrow I am starting on the big daddy sign. Wish me luck.
