Today I am sharing a project a little out of the box for me - a painted sign using Cricut cuts as the stencil. I have done several signs, but nothing like this one. A friend of mine is celebrating a milestone birthday this month and having a big party at her river summer home. I made a sign that looks a little bit vintage and incorporates her love for fairies and the name of the home, Moon River.
I used a piece of redwood, acrylics, and stencils made from Cricut Explore cuts. My painting was way too bright, so I sanded it and put on a coat of thinned out light brown. It measures about 12"x 7.5". It's ready to get wrapped along with a gift card to her favorite store.
