A Unique and Beautiful Garden Sign Idea
If you’ve been here for a while, you know how much we love decorative paper, especially decorative napkins. Did you know this whole craft can be done with chalky paint, stencils, and some decorative napkins?
And the best part- it’s completely customizable! For instance “baka” means grandma in Croatian so this DIY garden sign is a special gift for my mom, an avid gardener. If you love gardening too, be sure to check out this garden tour of my mom’s flower garden.
I always thought to have a beautiful sign like this garden sign I would have to be great at painting. Turns out that decorative napkins are the answer! By decoupaging these types of napkins, by the end, no one would ever guess that you used a napkin to create it. This gift or craft makes an excellent conversation starter.
