Hi friends! Steffany and I are excited to be over at The Wood Connection today to share this cute Enjoy The Ride slat sign! The Wood Connection’s slat signs are seriously awesome–endless possibilities. A slat sign and the contrast of a dark stain against white is just so pretty! Throw in an adorable mini basket and a banana seat bike?! Dreamland!! So perfect for summer and a cute little reminder too. 🙂
Here’s what you need from The Wood Connection to get started:
- Small slat sign
- Stain
- White paint
- Foam brush
Other supplies:
- Vinyl cut out of a bike
- Mini basket
- Mini flowers
- Hot glue gun
- Mini alphabet tiles
We used our Silhouette Cameo to cut a bike onto vinyl.
Once you have your vinyl, stain the slat sign and let dry. Then place the vinyl cut out on the board.
Next, paint over the whole board with white paint. Let dry, then peel off the vinyl, revealing the stain colored bike design underneath.
For the words on the board, we used mini alphabet tiles. (We got these from The Ribbon Retreat.com.) We just hot glued them to the slat sign.The board still needed a little something, so Steff and I found a cute mini basket and some mini flowers at the craft store to add to the front of the bike. The mini basket came with little tiny fruit in it, we pulled it out and hot glued little flowers instead. Then we hot glued the flower filled basket to the slat sign. Adorable.
Ta-da! We love that the words and basket are 3D. Pretty dang cute! Kinda makes you want to hop on a bike and go for cruise on a beautiful summer night right? But seriously, on THIS bike- with a lovely basket of flowers and a comfy banana seat to sit on. 🙂
Summertime can get a bit crazy with hyper kids, water play, parades, camping, hiking, biking, swimming, vacationing, whatever it is–let’s take all the crazy and not forget to ENJOY THE RIDE! 😉
