How to Create a Welcome Fall Sign with Proxxon Tools

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with a new Fall project.  Now that we are in September, it's time to turn our thoughts toward Fall.

I tend to hold onto scraps of wood and thought I'd use the scraps to create a Fall sign.

Using the Scroll Saw, I cut strips of wood of varying sizes.  For this project, I opted not to measure as I didn't want everything the same size.

Next, I cut the edges into pennant shapes.

Using the Delta Sander I sanded each piece until smooth.

I used Plaid's Milk Paint in Tavern Ale to paint each strip.

Using  FolkArt stencils and a foam brush, I added letters to the slats with Martha Stewart acrylic paint.  Once dry, I added additional flourishes with the same paint..  Next, I blended some additional brown paint around each strip.

Then, I assembled the sign with Beacon Adhesives.

Thanks for stopping by.
