DIY Wood Holiday Sign

Hope everyone had a wonderful Turkey Day! It’s tme for us to officially start decorating for Christmas and we are having a blast! This year is all about white and metallics in our home! I wanted to make a few new pieces of decor this year and I started with this DIY Modern Holiday Art made out of wood.

The thing abut this piece is that it’s so easy to customize and make your own. I am a neutral girl at heart but you could paint it red, green, gold, or any other color that fits into your Christmas decor.

I started with a piece of 20″ X 16″ wood. I cut my piece to size, but you could also buy a finished piece of wood at most craft stores if you don’t want to cut it yourself.

I used my Silhouette to cut out my ornament design on vinyl, but you could also use a stencil or find one on Etsy. I painted the remaining areas of wood white and then peeled off the stencil. I love the reveal, it’s my favorite part!

To give it a little extra pop for the holidays, I added extra sparkle on the edges. I started with silver puff paint but I wanted even more sparkle so I added extra glitter on top. You can never have enough, right?!

Thank you so much for having me, Jen! I can’t wait to see all the rest. Happy Holidays!

    I just adore this and how the wood grain peaks through. I just ordered a Silhouette Cameo during the Black Friday sale and can’t wait to have it on hand to help me with projects like this.

#ad We’ve been working on a few refreshes in our backyard this year! The sun has worn down a lot of our furniture out here so we are swapping out our weathered umbrella tables with these gorgeous black fluted tables from @veradek . I already had the matching planters out here (and love them BTW), and decided to add one more in the SandStone color for a bit of contrast. #myveradek #reimagineoutdoors #meetyououtside

Almost everything in here was either brought from our Washington home 3 years ago or bought second hand! Piece by piece this room has become a cozy space for our family over the last 3 years. The new stairs are staying and will work into the new design, I love them so much.
