Welcome Sign

My day started with the intention of making a bowl rack using Char's tutorial until I realized I didn't have all the wood I needed. Instead I pulled out a piece of board and my new stencil and made this new WELCOME TO OUR OLDE FARMSTEAD sign. I loved the sign Lisa made and being a crafter myself I decided to make my own. I love the results. Here it is hanging on my kitchen wall. The year 1996 signifies the year we built our house.



Now I'm off to do some errands, and of course I'll stop by Home Depot and pick up some more wood so I can get started on the bowl rack.

Nice job Patti! This looks wonderful. I might have to get into stenciling too.

Oh you girls with all your talent with wood make me envious. LOL! That sign is just wonderful and I love the colors you used.
I'm not good at stenciling or wood working. We probably have the tools, but I don't have the knowledge or the guts to try them. I'd prolly cut off a finger or something. LOL!
Great sign! Love it!
