Taking your brush give your pine sign 2 coats of Bayberry letting each coat dry in between. Once completly dry lightly distress to your liking.
Remove the backing paper from the the stencil, line up and adhere to your sign. Run over the stencil with an old store card to remove any air bubbles.
Using the foam wedge and picket fence sponge onto stencil. Make sure you go on lightly to avoid bleed through. Let dry and then remove stencil.

I have got to up my stenciling game Sam. I always end up sanding the stencil afterward just to hide my bloopers and the dreaded bleed through. Love this idea for a stocking holder. We don’t have a mantle and this would be the perfect way to hang them
And there’s nothing wrong with that lovely! Less paint really helps with the bleed-through! Let me know if you need any help!
This is super cute, Sam, especially for those without a mantel to hang stockings! Love the Bayberry color too. It would make a great gift as well. Pinned 🙂
How cute did this turn out. It will look great on Christmas morning with all the stockings hanging on it. I have never thought to make stencils like this with my Cricut, but I will be doing one soon. Thanks for the inspiration.
Oh, you will have a ball, Anita!! Can’t wait to see your projects!
Bayberry sure is the perfect Christmas green, Marie! Thank you so much for your kind comment!

Aww, thank you lovely! It sure opens up the possibilities of what you can create!

Thank you, lovely! You will have a blast with one I’m sure!!
Totally loving this Sam! Especially if you don’t have a fireplace mantle
Thank you, Deborah! Sure makes it easy if you don’t have a mantel!
