Day 15 - Small beach signs
It’s the last day of the beach segment of my 31 days of making wood signs!
Today, I’m going to show you the small beach signs/blocks/ornaments that I’ve made!
I had a really rough scrap piece of wood that I bought on the scrap cart at Home Depot! I thought some really small hanging signs would look good made out of this wood!
Here’s a look at all the different ones I made….
And a better look at just the beachy ones!
(Totally looks like these are on sand, huh?! It’s my driveway! Ha!)
The hubby bought a circular saw for Christmas, but I made these before then, so I had my dad help me out! I painted the boards the letter color, he cut them, I drilled the holes.
Later I added my stencils I cut, spray painted over the letters and removed them to reveal the words beneath, then strung them up with jute twine.
I used a lot of these on my Christmas tree last year, and sent several to my best friend!
I also made these beachy blocks that are perfect for setting on a shelf.
And awhile back I posted on making these beachy letter blocks, if you want to check them out!
Well, that wraps up beach weekend!! Lots more great sign ideas to come though!

What a great decorative use for scrap lumber! I love little wooden signs and these would make great gift tags! The blocks are easily changed with the seasons. I enjoyed your post.
