Are you ready to add some cuteness to your Dollar Tree sign? Come along with me as we transform a simple round sign into a stunning display using Mod Podge, tissue paper, and other materials. This project is perfect for beginners and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face.
Cute Dollar Tree Sign Display
Materials needed:
- Round wooden sign
- Paintbrush
- Decorative tissue paper
- Faux greenery
- Paint
- Floral
- Wooden letters
- Craft clothespins
- Scissors
- Wood glue
- Craft knife
Cutting decorative tissue paper
Start by cutting a section of decorative tissue paper that fits over the inner area of your round wooden sign.
To begin with, place your tissue paper on a flat surface. Use a craft knife to cut around the top of your sign. Keep cutting around the edges until you have made your way around the entire sign. You will only need two sections of tissue paper. Leave the middle portion of the sign as is to maintain the natural wood look.
Applying Mod Podge
Once the tissue paper is in place, use a paintbrush to apply Mod Podge on your wooden surface. To remove any creases and lines, use a blow dryer. Feel free to use any technique that works best for you. Apply a second coat of Mod Podge over the tissue paper and repeat the previous steps. Finally, remove the tissue paper.
Applying paint to sign
Apply paint to the middle section of your sign.
Adding paint to wooden letters
This is optional, I applied a thin coat of paint to my wooden letters. The color I am using is called espresso.
Attaching wooden letters to sign
To proceed, grab your wooden letters and apply wood glue to attach them to your sign.
Adding clothespins to sign
Apply some wood glue and attach the clothespins to your sign.
Adding greenery to your sign
Take your artificial greenery and attach it to your clothespins. To ensure a secure hold, apply some wood glue on the inside opening of the clothespins before attaching the greenery. Additionally, you can add a cute sticker next to your wooden letters to enhance their appearance.
