EASTER DIY HOP SIGN

We love a good DIY around here and I have a few to share for spring and Easter coming up. I love decorating our home for each season and holiday, and I've been breaking out all the bunny things lately.

For this project, all you need are paint, paint brushes and a glue gun. Plus, the added materials from the store. And this is a perfect little craft for you mamas and your little ones. Its really so easy. 

HOP wood sign

This is one of my favorite projects we've done!
I love that it looks so good as decor and is something you can bring out year after year.

Here's what you'll need...

1. Round wood sign (from Michaels)

2. Cardboard/wood letters (from Michaels)

3. Paint and Paint brushes (I love pastels for spring. So pretty!)

4. Glue Gun 

I purchased the wood sign and letters from Michaels. The sign was $11.99 and the letters were $2.99 each. Dont forget to use your coupon for an added savings. 

I love the look of the soft pastel colours, but you can use anything you like! We did a light pink for the round sign and a light peach for the hop letters. And if you dont have any pastel colours, just add white paint to any primary colours to make your own custom pastel. We do this all the time!

Here we go...

1. Gather your sign, letters, paint and paint brushes.

2. Start painting everything! Remember to do the sides for all the surfaces to get a clean, polished piece. You may have to help little ones with this part. 

3. Let dry a few hours. Then use your glue gun and hot glue the letters to the circle sign.

I had to paint the letters a few times to get the paint bright. Its a darker tone to start with, so give it a few coats. I'd say 3-4 coats will do it.

And that's it! Super easy and simple.

Hope this little DIY gets you inspired to make your own sign. Happy spring friends!
