How to Make a Vintage Style Home Sweet Home Sign {VIDEO}

Every house needs a home sweet home sign!  I’ve had this piece of wood for several years now.  It’s actually the top of a wine crate that I bought at a garage sale for $1.00.  I use the crate for a display at my vintage markets.  But I held on to the lid… I knew eventually I’d find something to use it for.

How to Make a Home Sweet Home Sign

  • old wood
  • Home Sweet Home stencil – This one is available in multiple sizes to fit whatever board you have!
  • black paint
  • stencil brush – Get a good one!  As you can see in the video, I still use one that I got over 20 years ago!

{{{See a complete list of what’s in my tool box and supply cabinet.}}}

Of course, I forgot to take a picture of the supplies I used or the board before I stenciled it.  But you can watch the video below and see what it looked like and how I used the stencil.

My original thought was to find some old signs at the thrift store, paint over them, and then stencil the home sweet home on them.  I may still do that, too.

In case you didn’t know… I’m from Texas and still consider it home.  And we raised cotton when I was growing up, too.  I never picked cotton, though.  Just rode on top of the cotton trailer on the way to the gin.  Something today’s kids will never get to experience!
