Wood slices project

I am sharing this fun and easy project 

I am using wood slices I picked up at Wal-Mart.  But you can find them online or in stores. 

• package of wood slices

•  small Stencils 
• paint 

• Paint pens 

Place stencils on wood slices and hold done with painters tape. Use paint  to fill in design. After drying add details with paint pen. 

Hand-Lettered Wood Slice Ornaments

These hand-lettered ornaments focus on typography, allowing simple words and phrases to become the main design element. The natural wood background gives the lettering a clean, modern contrast.

Prepare the surface by sanding and optionally applying a thin whitewash using diluted white acrylic paint. Once dry, use a black paint pen or brush marker to carefully letter your design. Add small accents such as dots, branches, or simple borders to frame the text. Seal with a matte or satin finish and attach baker’s twine or ribbon for hanging.

Brush on a layer of mod podge over the wood slice. Press the napkin circle on to the wood slice and press gently with fingers. 

Apply a thin layer of Mod Podge over top of the napkin and leave it to dry fully before applying on the back side.. For a hanger drill a small hole and screw in a screw with an eye. Add ribbon and decorations with hot glue.
