- 4 – 3″ by 5″ craft bass wood pieces per box
- One 5″ by 5″ piece of bass wood for the short box, and one piece of 3″ by 3″ bass wood for the tall box (you can use a utility knife to cut the wood to size)
- DecoArt Satin Enamels paint in two colors of your choice
- DecoArt Americana Stencil
- Foam paint brush
- Hot glue (wood glue works too!)
Once the paint is dry, use hot glue (surprisingly it works really well! But wood glue works too!) to attach the side pieces of the box together, and then I glued the base piece on the bottom. Once the glue has dried your box is ready to fill with a planter, pens, or what have you!
Then, come summer, I can easily paint right over it with a more vibrant color and different pattern stencil! It’s such a great way to change up my decor easily! And I love how smooth the DecoArt stain enamels were to paint onto the wood. The paint dried in minutes to a perfect satin finish and it had such great coverage that I only needed one coat!
So, what do you think? Do your planters and candles need a little winter makeover? When it is this cute, why not right?!
