Instructions for Buffalo Print Remade Wall Art:
-
The first thing to do was to protect the buffalo check area, that's my favorite part. So I covered it with painters tape.
-
Then I painted a base coat of gray using Americana Slate Gray paint.
-
While that was drying, I started to work on my vinyl. This was a graphic I had purchased before but never had the right use for, until today. It was so easy to just open up the .svg file in Silhouette Studio and cut it out with my Silhouette Cameo 3. After cutting, do the weeding part.
*Note: If you don't have an e-cutter, you can buy already cut vinyl all over the place, or you can paint these words on using stencils. -
Once the Slate Gray was dry, I added a coat of Americana Snow (Titanium) White.
-
Then, it's time to add transfer tape on top of my weeded vinyl and then apply it to the sign.
-
And just like that, the remaking wall art project is done!
