How to make a Personalized Farmhouse Garden Sign.

The “Garden sign” is a quick and easy Dollar Tree project.

Now that garden season is upon us, my mind is distracted with all things gardening.

I will start planting next week, and I can’t wait.

In anticipation of this year’s garden, I created a garden sign

using an inexpensive galvanized banner purchased at Dollar Tree*.

I made it with a traditional red, white, and blue color scheme.

• Using the Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die-Cutting Machine* and the “garden” SVG file from The Silhouette Store, I created a design for the banner.
• I cut the word garden using StyleTechCraft Dark Blue Glossy Craft Vinyl*.
• To make the banner personalized, I chose a font that complimented the “garden cut file” and cut my name using StyleTechCraft Dark Red Glossy Craft Vinyl*.

There are so many great colors of StyleTechCraft Glossy Craft Vinyl to choose from.

• I removed the extra vinyl in and around the image words using a Vinyl Weeding Pen*.
• Lay the StyleTechCraft Vinyl Transfer Tape* over the vinyl words and gently rub with a vinyl scraper tool.

• Remove the vinyl from its white protective layer and place onto the banner.
• Rub over the vinyl with the scraper tool to transfer the vinyl onto the banner.
• Gently lift the transfer paper from the vinyl.

FYI…the transfer paper is reusable.

• Line up the second layer over the first.

• Gently remove transfer paper from the banner.
• Allow the vinyl to cure for 72 hours before using.

The vinyl on the sign will hold up to the weather and looks great in my garden.
