This fun summer plaque not only displays a cute message, but is very easy to adapt to just about any size background. I did my sample on both a single 10” x 16” maple board, and I also used several pieces of maple in 2, 3 and 4 inch widths to give the plaque a more ‘rustic’ effect. This is a great way to use up those smaller scrap pieces of wood that you may have laying around your shop.
I also tried using some of DecoArt’s new Chalky Finish Paint and a crackle medium to make the plaque look weathered. I loved the effect and color! Of course, you could choose any color or finish you wish to personalize your plaque to your own liking.
