We love front door decorations.  They're colorful, bright and are a nice way to greet guests to your home.  For Easter, Designer Robyn transformed a plain wood board into a "Hoppy Easter" sign for her front porch sign holder.  Get your Glue Dots, pick up a few supplies and get started on a great home decor project for Easter!

I love decorating the front of our house with fun little signs. I even have a sign holder next to our front door to hang them on, so I decided to make a new little Easter sign to hang this year. It was super easy and so simple to make and looks so spring like and fun! 

Here's what you need:

Here's what you do:

  1. First, paint your wood board with chalkboard paint and let it dry. Note: Chalkboard paint needs time to cure, so make sure you allow for that time.
  2. While it's drying, gather all of your other materials and start to lay them out to get an idea of how you want them to look on your sign.
  3. After your paint is completely dry, go ahead and pop the tops off of your silk flower stems and a few leaves as well. Use either Craft or Permanent Glue Dots to adhere them to your sign board.
  4. If you want to add ribbon or designer tape to throw in a bit more color and texture, do that as well. Use your Glue Dots to adhere the ribbon to your sign.
  5. Next, I cut out the shape of a bunny from white fuzzy fabric. I added a cute little pom pom for the tail and adhered him with Permanent Glue Dots in between my flowers like he was hiding in the garden. :-)
  6. The last step is to grab some chalk or chalkboard markers and have fun writing a greeting to your sign. Hang it on your front door or on a sign holder when finished.

I love how fun and festive it looks out there! Have a Hoppy Easter everyone!
