Christmas· Holiday· Stencil

19 Dec

You know we love making signs and have been on a marquee kick lately so we decided to combine the two, holiday style, and see what we came up with!

With a little ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape added into the mix, we created a DIY rustic marquee holiday tree sign!

To get started you’ll need a raw piece of plywood, pencil, stain hue of choice, ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape Delicate Surfaces, white acrylic or latex paint + a foam brush. A drill with a bit to accommodate the Christmas tree light size you choose is also needed.
