To begin, add a stain or paint to your sign (assuming it’s unfinished wood). To apply the stain, simply use an old t-shirt or rag to wipe the stain on in sections. Then, immediately wipe off any excess using a separate rag.
Let the stain dry 24-48 hours before applying the decoupage wooden letters.
Trace the outline of your wooden letters onto scrapbook paper, and cut the shapes out using scissors or a detail knife like an X-acto.
Once you have your shapes ready, brush a generous amount of Mod Podge onto the wooden letters and attach your paper cut-outs.
After you secure the paper to the wood letters, let the glue dry 20-30 minutes.
Apply a final coat of Mod Podge on top of the letters.
Optional: Apply a coat of acrylic sealer for extra shine and durability.
