Crafting with sola wood flowers is so much fun in any season, but there is something wonderful about using them to make a lovely Fall sign when the weather starts changing near the end of the year.
Crafting with Sola Wood Flowers
It’s that time of year! School is starting for those of us with kids, a new season is in the air, and for many of us, it means a weather change too.
We spend the summers at Lake Huron in Ontario, so getting adjusted back to life at home is always interesting! Crafting always helps me with change, and hopefully, it will help you too since this is usually a season of change.
For the background, we used a board that we found that wasn’t exactly wood, but more of a pressboard. Any type of slatted panel will work for this project though. I always recommend checking the dollar store and the thrift store before buying anything too expensive – there are a lot of budget-friendly ones out there!
