This is going to be a pretty short post, because this was pretty easy. It took very little time, and it looks just like wood. I took a piece of cardboard, cut it into strips longways (I did three), and then I hot glued them together. Seems counter productive, but it created lines that made it look more realistic.Using an exacto blade, I sliced more lines all along the cardboard. Then I took scissors and cut the edges, to make them look more worn. All that is left to do then, is paint! It was really quick and easy, but the end result was fantastic.
I used this tip making a “wooden” sign for my daughters baby shower. Genius! Thank you:)
This is such an awesome idea! I love this tip-and I would have never thought to do anything like this. Your posts are inspiring! Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for your post. I made a sign for Vacation Bible School and it came out great! So glad I found your instructions.
That’s awesome! I am so glad it was helpful.
