Farm sign for our new farm!

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 

We moved into our new house this past July but I just now finished our farm sign... This was my first time really trying to paint anything so I'm pretty thrilled with how it turned out!

Here's the large view. I'm thinking I'll hang it from a for sale sign frame. The three smaller signs are separate pieces and will hang from the bottom of the main sign with eye hooks. I still need to finish the curved line at the top but I couldn't find anything to make a stencil with tonight. Gotta find some cardboard or something!

Here's a closer view of the three smaller pieces. I'm loving the Silkie, could have done a bit better of a job on the BR smile:

And a close-up of the horse head since I'm particularly proud of it... It's meant to resemble my dressage horse.

How's the likeness?

Very nice.  I paid a lot of money for my farm sign.  Yours is every bit as good.
