3D Christmas tree decoration for a front porch sign
Greet your guests this holiday season by decorating your front porch with a unique 3D Christmas tree decoration sign! It's easy to accomplish with the help of a stencil! Could also be decorated as a winter tree to leave up well beyond Christmas! Here's how!
Supplies:
Paint
Other supplies
- reclaimed wood planks to hold tree stencil image, measuring 11"w x 28" tall
- Real branch
- Smaller faux evergreen branches
- Wider paint brush like this Palm Pro
- Wider artist's brush
- Dome tip stencil brush
- Glue gun
- Masking tape
Instructions:
- Build a sign base that exceeds the tree stencil image, which measures 11" w x 28" tall. My overall sign measures: 16" w x 48" h.
- Paint the sign base in Fusion's Coal Black to create a deep night sky.
- Position the Christmas tree seedling stencil in place, then use masking tape to hold it in place with masking tape running across the stencil horizontally.
- Place the Twinkle Star stencil behind the tree, then stencil the stars with Fusion's Victorian Lace where the tree will not sit. Stencil until the sky is filled.
- Stencil the tin can with Fusion's Little Lamb. Add rusty effects with Georgian Clay.
- Add a Merry Christmas sign if desired, in Georgian Clay, with the Merry Christmas with Decorations stencil.
- Paint separated evergreen branches with Fusion's Victorian Lace to create snow.
- Hot glue or screw on a real branch for the stem of the tree.
- Add the evergreen branches with hot glue, using the stencil as a guideline.
- Decorate the tree with mini pinecones, or other ornaments as desired.
