Do you guy ever feel like you have about a million ideas but about 20 minutes to execute them? I feel like that is my life these days. Between 4 kids, my home, garden, work, school(college classes) and this blog, I am running out of time! I am learning to manage my it though. I am looking forward to fall and winter season here. You will be seeing many new and fun seasonal ideas for your home! I hope you check back and see whats coming up.
Now on to my 3rd installment of Thrift Store Farmhouse Swag. Today I am bringing a simple sign to life. I am not reinventing the wheel here, but sometimes I think we forget about how easy and inexpensive it is to create some of these items. I am focusing of the FARMHOUSE sign today.
I started with this 2 dollar piece of artwork from Savers thrift store.
I felt kind of bad painting over an Autumn themed sign, but it was in pretty bad shape, and I have really been wanting to create a farmhouse sign.
I grabbed my trusty white paint and painted the raised center part of the sign. When that was dry I used a different method to transfer my letters to the sign. Sometimes I use stencils, and sometime I trace letters. This time I actually printed off the word FARMHOUSE on my computer. I then used my Sharpie Paint Marker
Here it is ready to be traced.
Once the tracing was done I painted in the letters.
And that folks, is it! This was a quick and easy project to do! As you can see I am slowly adding pieces to my porch for my fall transformation. I love the way this farmhouse sign looks with the rest of my autumn decor.
I am truly loving the creative outlet this blog has given me. If you like what I am posting I would love to hear from you. I would also love it if you would follow me on Social Media!
