DiY BaTHRooM aRT

Hey everyone!!
Today I whipped up some new art for my guest bathroom.
Like whatcha see...here's how I made them

Cut two pieces of wood to your desired size don't worry about sanding them since were going for the worn look anyways.

Paint your wood black
Once your black is dry, paint over top of it with a beige-ish colour. I mixed my white with some light brown paint
(sorry no pics of this)

Cut out your man and woman bathroom symbols and letters.
You can find the bathroom symbols on sure cuts a lot under "symbols."
Reverse weed your vinyl....so you have a stencil.

Once your paint is completely dry position your vinyl on your board and paint away. Peel your vinyl off.
Now the fun part, once all the paint is completely dry take a power sander (or hand sand) and make those signs look "old" looking.

{BEFORE}
{AFTER}
Add some picture hooks to the back of your signs and your good to go!!

  1. Such a great idea! Wish I had a cutter. I want to do this for our guest bath too, on the door so guests know where it is. I'll have to see if I canfind these symbols online. Thanks for showing how to make the signs. Found you on Tater Tots & Jello.
