Signs of love



There are so many things to try out there! One of the things would be this, Aged wood signs. A LOT of work, but with truly rewarding result, don't you think? Who would guess these plank pieces started out looking brand new?? Not me. :)

 



The process includes using power tools (yay!), sandpaper, rusty nails, saw, steel wool, vinegar and paint. Oddest combo so far.

 

Making the wood look and and distressed takes time, but I think the most time-consuming part is cutting the stencils....Oh I wish santa will send me a digital diecut gizmo!

 



Since stencilmaking isn't the most fun part I just combined the stencils I made to make different messages. That works. :)

 



For this last one, I used both masking and stencils in multiple layers.

Time-consuming or not, I need to make more!

 

 

I also made a few paintings with a curtain for canvas, they'll be up here soon.
