I was at Dollar Tree and found a sign being clearanced out for .50, after that an old jello mold at a thrift store for .50. Using these 2 items plus some materials on hand, I was able to create a cute sign for the spring season for my home.
Here is the original sign I bought for .50 at Dollar Tree.
I used stencil tape and placed 2″ Plaid stencils onto each section. There were 4 sections to this piece, and I painted on the letters H, M, and E on the 1, 3, and 4th sections. I used Folk Art Home Decor Chalk Paint in the color Nautical.
This is the old jello mold I found at the thrift store. I used the nautical paint on the center heart and let that dry. I traced the outer edge with blue permanent marker. Then I gave the whole blue section a coat of Sparkle Mod Podge to add some shimmer.
I hot glued the heart in the second spot under the letter H. You could use another glue of your choice. The heart would represent the letter “O” and I had the word “Home” on the sign.
You’re very creative – marvelous signs for cheap! #MMBC
