"B" is for Beach

Handpainted beach signs.

What once was this:

Is now this:

Here's how I made them:
1. Find your fence piece.
(Another great find while out running early on bulk trash day!
And there was 2 of them, now I'm kicking myself for not taking both.)

2. Disassemble and cut your pointy pieces to size.

3. Paint background color, I used two coats.
Creamy color is BM sugar cookie.
Blue is MS rainwater.

4. Print out letters off computer.

Line up and trace letters using a ballpoint pen to create slight indent in wood.

5. Paint inside the indented line.

6. Sand to distress.
Seal with exterior grade satin poly.

Which way is your beach?

Yes these are going to the fair along with the Sea & Sand signs.
