I often get requests by friends, family and clients to re-create signs they found on Pinterest. So I begin today with a request from a special person to re-create a sign similar to one she loved on Pinterest for their porch.
I painted the board with a light grey "oops paint" from Home Depot then using a dry brush added white streaks over the top of the grey.
Once I found the fonts I was looking for I used my Silhouette vinyl cutter to create a stencil. I used stencil vinyl or this project which works very well when it is time to piece together the stencils and there is no bleeding.
When all the pieces of my stencil were positioned perfectly I began to sponge paint the letters. I use a large sponge pouncer to do this.
When I finished I pulled off the stencils and let the lettering dry.
The porch sign was finished and when I sent my friend a photo she was thrilled. We met for lunch at a half way point and I delivered her sign.
