Make it Monday: DIY Farmhouse Sign

DIY Farmhouse Sign

This week, my daughter and I were trying to think of the perfect sign to hang behind our piano. I knew I wanted something “music-themed” and I wanted to try to make something. We went through our scrap wood pile and found this:

We measured it around another long, thin board we found and painted the back board white.

We then pulled the framing pieces off and cut them to the correct size. I chose to make it easier on us and not miter them. We then stained the framing pieces.

We reattached the framing pieces.

When we were thinking of something to put on the sign, we decided on a quote from one of our favorite hymns, “How Great Thou Art.” We quickly created a stencil on our Silhouette Cameo.

We cut out the stencil and placed it on the sign. We then traced the stencil.

And then we filled in the traced stencil.

We then attached D-ring hanging hardware to the back of the frame and called it finished.

I was really pleased with how this turned out. I can’t wait to get our family room painted so we can hang it up! I’ll surely show it to you when we do.

Have a wonderful week! Join us again Wednesday for a look at our newly organized bathroom vanity.

  1. It turned out beautiful and is perfect for the piano area. We enjoy hanging Faith art in our home but it is so expensive! I have made some and look forward to making more with my Cricut. This inspired me. Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday. We look forward to seeing you back next week!
