DIY Ribbon Flower Sign

*Wood slats-Hobby Lobby

*Large popsicles sticks

*Ribbon of choice

*Jute rope

*Half wood bead

The first step is to lay all four of the wood slats down and glue four popsicle sticks to the back to make your surface. If you choose, you can use a ready made surface to save you time.

Your surface should look like the one below once you have done the previous step.

Next, I used the color black currant to paint my surface. I used a chip brush for this as I didn’t want 100% coverage.

As that dried, I took my ribbon and stacked each design together and cut them in the shape of flower petals. I ended up not using the color on the bottom right. All three of the ribbons I used came from Hobby Lobby.

I then arranged my flower petals somewhat in the shape of a flower. For the center of the flower I used rope twine and simply wrapped it around in circles until all of the inside edges of my flower petals(ribbon) were covered.

Now we have a our cute little flower. I wanted to put something in the center to hide my hot glue from where I started my jute rope so I painted a half wood bead with the same black currant color and glued that in the center. You can find the half wood beads like I used right HERE using my affiliate link.

I just love how this turned out! The perfect piece of decor for Spring and even Summer if you please!

USA Layered Star Sign

For this project, you will need:

*surface of choice-the one I used is handmade

*star cut-out

*USA star decor-Hobby Lobby

*red, white and blue paint of choice

*POSCA paint pens-here is my affiliate link for the ones I use.

*raffia

*hot glue gun-affiliate link for the one I use.

I started by painting my star cut out with blue bonnet Apple Barrel paint and my USA star with my white paint.

Next, I used POSCA paint pens to paint the detailing. These pens are super handy to have if you craft often!

Once my stars were dry I hot glued them onto my surface. Blue start first and the white star on top as shown.

I tied up a quick raffia bow to add to the top and that’s all there was to it!
