Hanging State Sign

Thanks For Sharing!

Want to know a secret? Wreath’s don’t always have to be round, in fact I’m a huge fan of unconventional wreaths and door decor. I’ve shared a few different ideas on the blog over the years from this hanging flower basket, to a plate charger wreath and square twig wreath. Today, I’m stepping out of the box again with a Hanging State Sign! Of course you could simply use this as decor or in a gallery wall, or you can state pride and rep it on your door!

I’m joining several other bloggers today as we all share our version of spring wreaths. I kid you not, they are ALL gorgeous and you have to scroll down to see them all!

Hanging State Sign

Learn how to make your own personalized hanging state sign for any season! Using a wood canvas, cricut, and a few faux flowers. You are ready for spring!

I’m really partial to Washington State. I grew up here and I absolutely love living in the PNW with all the nature that surrounds us. I often like sneak a little Northwest pride into my room designs, whether it’s adding mountains or nature or something like that. Anyway, here is how you can make your own personalized state sign with a fun design!

I added a little bit of greenery and florals to the top of my sign to give a spring wreath feel. But you can always customize it to whatever season you wish, or just keep it plain for every day decor.

Personalized State Sign Tutorial

SUPPLIES

  • Basic pre-made 10X10 wood canvas 
  • White paint
  • Cricut Explorer Air 2 
  • Black Vinyl 
  • Transfer Paper 
  • Faux Flowers 

 

For this project, you will need a Cricut to get the exact artwork I used. Head to Cricut.com and search for “Washington Flowers. #M9196F91 “. I made my design roughly 8″ X 6” to fit the canvas. Then cut it onto black vinyl. It took a long time peel off all those little details, but it was worth it!

Using transfer tape, carefully apply the design to the wood canvas. TIP: Always check which kind of transfer tape you are using before applying it! I didn’t check mine and I used the strong adhesive transfer tape instead of the normal transfer tape and it made the project a teeny tiny bit more difficult to do! So just take the time to slow down and check the details :)

See so easy! Now dress it up with a few flowers and you are good to go! A project that might only take you 30-45 minutes, IF you use the right transfer tape ;)
