Hi everyone! I'm so excited to bring you all this fun summer craft. Today we're creating this fun summer hanging sign. I was excited to find some items at a discount. If you're ready, I'll take you through each step to create your summer decorative sign.

Materials
I found the floral at Michael's craft store for a discounted price of $0.79.
I bought a summer-designed napkin at Dollar Tree for $1.25 per pack.
The "Hello" wood décor was purchased at Michael's for $1.19, as well as the wood summer décor, which was also discounted.
I only used the summer flip-flops for my craft, at $1.19 each. I'm using white and bright magenta paint.
The wood square plaque measuring 10'' x 10'' was bought at Michael's for $5.99.
I also got Mod Podge, a sponge brush or paintbrush, floral snips, scissors, and wire cutters, which are needed to remove the metal section from the summer wood décor pieces.
Begin by applying your white paint onto your wood plaque. I applied a total of two coats of paint. In between coats you can use a heat gun or blow dryer to help with drying.
Next, take your napkin, and if your napkin is a 2-ply remove the second layer. After removing the second layer, cut one square section of your napkin.
Take your sponge brush, and begin to apply a thin layer to the middle section of your wood.
Afterward, take your napkin, and lay it over the middle section of the Mod Podge.
Next, take your Mod Podge and apply it over the top surface of your napkin. You can use a heat gun, or blow dryer to help with drying your mod podge.
Next, take your wood hello décor, and add your paint.
Next, using your hot glue, add your glue to the back of your Hello décor, and glue it onto your wood panel.
Next, take your wood summer décor, and using wire cutters, remove the metal off of the end of it. Using hot glue, apply it onto the back of your wood summer décor, and add it to the bottom right-hand corner.
After, take your floral snips, and begin to cut just the tops of your floral. I removed the stems, and I also kept some of the leaves.
Using some hot glue, apply a small amount on the back of each flower, and onto your leaf, and add them onto your wood panel. I added two just under my wood hello décor, and one next to the summer flip-flops.
Your fun summer hanging sign is now complete, and ready for you to hang. I absolutely love how this craft turned out. I hope you all have enjoyed this simple DIY project.
