Four Market Signs

More stencilled signs, made on a Sunny Saturday

I clear waxed and buffed the above signs after I took the picture. Daylight was fading.

Donna of Funky Junk Interiors has another set of four stencils - Super, Flower, Vintage, Flea - which as planned, work with her Farmers Market stencil.

I picked up the two red painted boards from the Free pile across the road from Lee's Grocery store in Fort Langley. The green sign is made using a broken drawer side piece and the two white signs were cut from a piece of left over cedar siding.

Flea Market Sign. Cleaned and sanded the old piece of wood. I should have have used a piece of masking tape to cover the end of the word Farmers' to make sure that none of that word was stencilled.

Super Market Sign sequence below. I made two Super Market Signs, one with a white washed background and the other with an almost clear white wash.

Flower Market sign. DH cut the jagged board end for me. I cleaned and lightly sanded the board, removed any loose pieces from the broken end and sanded all the edges until smooth.

Vintage Market sign. Background is Gypsy Green Heirloom Traditions over a partly stained board. The two tone background with the Gypsy Green wash and the Sedona Red lettering as well as the tonal background from the original drawer stain.

Supplies: I used CeCe Caldwell Simply White, ASCP Versailles, ASCP Primer Red, CeCe Caldwell Vermont Stale chalk-clay paint, Gypsy Green Heirloom Traditions, ASCP Clear Wax. The tools I used were a makeup sponge, a stiff paint brush, a sanding block, two rags, newspaper and blue painters tape. DH put sawtooth hooks on the back of the signs.

I put the signs in my booth, couldn't get a great shot but, here they are along with earlier signs: Farmers' Market (top) and my Arrow OPEN sign.

I suspect you, my dear friends, know I LOVE making signs with stencils. The Vintage Market is my favourite right now. Thanks Donna for starting a Stencil Shop.

Thanks for visiting.
