This past Thanksgiving my mom thought it would be fun for the girls to do a Pinterest craft together. Usually we spend a lot of our weekend shopping for Christmas deals but since my sister had a two week old baby we knew it would be tough to make that happen.
My mom brought all the supplies which was amazing. She bought each of us 6 pieces of wood of two different widths. She brought left over paint samples from when they were repainting their house, stencils and brushes.
I mixed the gray paint in a plastic cup with some water and gently brushed it on the wood to make it look worn. I decided what I wanted my sign to say and started to lay out the stencils on my boards. I stenciled it before enforced the wood together using white acrylic paint and a stencil brush. After I completed the stenciling and the wood was dry I used two small boards down the back of the sign and nailed them to each board to hold them all together.

I think the total cost of the project was around $15. Not bad, huh?
