Use a wooden panel as the basis for your decorative sign. It serves as the perfect background to show off the lettering and decoration. Position the wooden board on a flat work surface.
Shape the lettering
Take a cotton rope and use it to form the word "Beach" on the wooden board. You can be creative and make the lettering either straight or curved, depending on your individual style. Make sure to lay the rope evenly so that all the letters are clearly recognisable.
To give the lettering a personal touch, you can colour the cotton rope with an ink pad either beforehand or afterwards. Choose a colour that matches your maritime theme. The ink pads give the rope a subtle colour nuance that makes it even more appealing.
Glue your lettering to the wooden panel with hot glue.
Decorate with sea shells and scatter decorations
Now it's time to get creative! Frame the lettering with sea shells and small scatter decorations reminiscent of the beach. Arrange the sea shells loosely around the word 'beach' and add small scatter decorations to give your beach wall sign more structure and dimension. Fix all the decorative elements with hot glue.
Final touch
Check your artwork from different angles. Also check that all parts are firmly in place. Use some more hot glue or some handicraft glue to fix the elements that are still loose. Leave the sign to dry thoroughly.
