Mini Picket Fence Hanging Decoration Video tutorial






Materials Needed

One wooden fence decoration- purchased at Dollar Tree

Mod Podge

One decorative napkin-purchased one pack at Dollar Tree

Paint- I'm using chalk paint.-White and Misty pink

One mini watering can decoration-I found this in the gardening section at Dollar Tree

One paint brush

Floral

Hot glue 

Scissors

One pencil for tracing

Floral snips

Optional- butterfly sticker

Step 1: Adding paint to the mini fence



Start off by, applying a layer of white chalk paint onto your picket fence. You can also apply the white chalk paint to the spaces between the pickets using a smaller paintbrush. Set it aside, and allow it to dry.

Step 2: Tracing, cutting, and adding the decorative napkin


Take your napkin, and remove the second layer. For this project, you will only want the top layer of your napkin. Once you have done so, take your napkin, and lay it out flat. Next, take your picket fence, and lay it on top of your napkin. Using your pencil begin to trace out each picket.

After you have traced out your pickets, take your scissors, and begin to cut the traced pickets out. Cut each picket out, and set it aside.



Using your Mod Podge, begin to apply some Mod Podge over each picket. 

Next, take the napkin pieces you had previously cut, and start to add them on top of the Mod Podge. Using your fingers, gently press them down, and remove any wrinkles, and lines.

Take your Mod Podge, apply a thin layer over each napkin piece, and picket. Once you have done this step, you can use a heat gun, or blow dryer to help with the drying. Using a smaller paint brush, take a little Mod Podge, go between each picket, and apply it to sections that may need it. 

Step 3: Adding paint to the mini watering can 


After, take your watering can decoration and apply your paint onto it. If you want to keep the original color on the watering can, you can skip this step. 

Using your hot glue, apply a small amount onto the back of your watering can decoration, and add it to the right side of your picket fence.

Step 4: Cutting and adding flowers to the mini fence



Next, take your floral, and begin to cut them to size using your floral snips. 

Once you have cut your floral, take each piece and glue them onto the left side of your picket fence decoration. 

The last step is optional, but you can add a little butterfly sticker onto the corner of your watering can decoration. 


Your simple mini picket fence decoration is now complete! Did you enjoy this simple craft? Would you like to see more Mod Podge crafts? I'd love to hear from you all.

  8. I just commented on the bird house post and then saw this one. I again love the use of the floral napkin. Whoever figured out that napkins could be used as easy backgrounds for crafts is my favorite person. There are so many floral and patterned napkins! It is a never ending crafters dream :)
