DIY Sign-farmhouse Style
I made a farmhouse style old barn wood sign. I stenciled in the word geranium but you can write whatever you like on it. It was super easy and you can get totally creative with this!
I wasn’t sure which paint color I would use so I grabbed two. I decided on the white but I'm sure other colors would look good on this too.
I chose a piece of old barn wood. I had to be sure it wasn’t too warped. You may have to cut your wood depending on how big you want your sign to be.
Mine is 4 foot long.
I sanded the wood to get it a bit smoother. I sanded only one side since only one side would be visible so I didn't bother sanding the other side.
I painted the wood white on one side and the edges.
I painted the letters using a homemade stencil. I painted the word geranium. It dried very fast.
Once the paint was dry the sign was finished and ready to go!
Style your sign however you want!
