Fun Decorative Summer Sign

 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.


Video tutorial




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.  Be sure to check out more tutorials here on my blog, and for more video tutorials visit, Steph Creates-DIY Home & Crafts. Thank you so much for stopping by, and creating with me. I'll see you soon!

A Touch of Spring: Faux Rose & Wildflower Beaded Wreath Tutorial

Today I’m sharing a soft and delicate spring wreath that comes together beautifully with just a few simple supplies. I’m using a beaded wood wreath as my base, along with faux yellow roses, pink artificial wildflowers, and a bit of foliage to bring everything to life. This project is perfect if you’re looking to add a gentle pop of color and a touch of spring charm to your home. Video tutorial  Supplies You’ll Need Beaded wood wreath Faux yellow roses Pink artificial wildflowers Faux foliage Floral/wire cutters Craft wire Trim Your Florals I started by using my floral cutters to trim the stems of each flower.

Adjust the length to suit your design and the level of fullness you want in your wreath. I began by cutting my yellow roses first. Prepare Your Craft Wire and  Attach the Roses After I trimmed the roses, I cut small sections of craft wire. These will be u...

Hello everyone! I’m excited that you decided to visit the blog today. I wanted to share how to create a cozy autumn tablescape at home. My goal was to design something warm and inviting, as our table is a space where we share conversations, drink coffee, tackle homework, and simply enjoy each other’s company.  I typically don’t go all out when decorating my dining table, but I wanted to show you how I styled it using decor pieces I already had.

Create a Tissue Holder from a Plastic Container

Hi everyone! I hope you're all doing well. Do any of you have any plastic containers at home? I recently finished a product and after cleaning the container, I wondered what I could reuse it for.
