Hi All! Recently I purchased several new stencils off that app that I am always seeing on Facebook called Wish. I have seen lots of things on the app but have been avoiding it, even though things are really cheaply priced. I figured that they were cheaply made as well. Then one day I saw a stencil that liked and it was less than two dollars so I ordered it just to see if it was worth the price. It took a few weeks for it to get to me but I was happy with the stencil. Over the next few weeks I ordered more, just couldn’t beat the price. Some are a little bit smaller than I had thought that they would be, but some do come in different sizes to pick from. Today I am going to share the stenciled self-serve kitchen sign made using the first stencil that I ordered through Wish.
Self-Serve Kitchen Sign
For this self-serve kitchen sign I started out base coating the wood with Waverly Ivory chalk paint.
Next, I centered the stencil on the wood and stenciled it in using black chalk paint.
Once dry I took it out to the garage to distress the edges.
The base was stain using Craftsmart premium gel stain that I found at Michaels. It is a water-based stain. It was attached using the hubby’s staple gun and gun.
I am happy with the self-serve kitchen Stencil that I purchased from Wish, but I am sure that you need to be careful with what you buy.

Your kitchen may be the one room in your home that is the most neutral. White or wood cabinets and simple countertops make a kitchen look clean and uncluttered.

There are few things that are as satisfying as pulling off a successful DIY project, especially when a guest asks where you purchased it. We’ve rounded up 50+ of our favorite tutorials that show you how to organize, entertain, and decorate with style, without spending a fortune. But if you can’t afford the time it takes to pull out DIY decors, you can always get a unique décor from market or online and if the cost is an issue it can easily be covered with title loans. So, roll up your sleeves and get cracking! You can do it.
