It’s that holiday season where we are coming up on Thanksgiving and decorating for Christmas. This week I have designed Farmhouse Signs that can be use all year long. I made the cool wooden table runner. One side is Farmhouse Sign and the other is Farmhouse Christmas. So you can easily flip back and forth.
In this weeks blog I am showing you how to create your own double sided wooden table runner. I used a board, paint and vinyl. So it was fairly quick and easy to do. This is a bundle of sayings from me to you. You can also just use a word, re-arrange the designs, etc. Many options. As you scroll through the blog you will see some other pictures of options! Enjoy!
This weeks FREE Farmhouse Sign PNG/SVG/cut file can be found in the Freebie Library. File number is 59 (remember the password is always in the bottom of your weekly email from me). I have also created a video tutorial along with some directions on how I made the double sided wooden table runner. I can’t wait to see your projects!!

Video Tutorial – Farmhouse Sign Wood Table Runner
Here are the steps I took to make the Farmhouse Signs Wooden Table Runner
Step 1 – Open the file in your favorite cutting software. Cut vinyl to the size you need for your board. I was frugal and split the design so it fit on my vinyl 12″. I check my vinyl to make sure I have a good cut before ejecting it out of my machine.
Step 2 – Paint your board. I use a baby wipe and a dark grey. I used what I had and the dark grey was a chalk paint. When used the baby wipe I needed to add water so it “stain” the board. I love this technique. It is fast and dries quickly. Make sure you stain both sides.
Step 3 – Next, take your chip brush and your top color and paint over your stain. You want more of a long long streaks to give it a distressed look.
Step 4 – I then took the dark grey again and used chip brush (you could also use a piece of paper towel) and do the edges of the board. I then took a rag or paper towel to wipe it more to give it a distressed looked. I show this in the video. I also used a liner brush to draw a line down the middle of the board to make it look like 2 boards. Again, I used the rag to rub the line to give it a distressed look.
Step 5 – While the board is drying weed your vinyl.
Step 6 – Once you have it weeded use your transfer tape to apply the vinyl to the board. Make sure you burnish it well. If you watch the video i show how i used my squeegee to remove the transfer tape from the vinyl if it pulls up.
Step 7 – Repeat the process for the other side.
Step 8 – Enjoy your table runner. I placed it on tope of another runner to give it that extra look.
