How to make a DIY Dollar Tree Conversation Heart Napkin “Love” Sign
Follow the below easy steps to make this Conversation Heart sign, or you can watch the Facebook Live tutorial here!
Sand the entire sign to remove as much of the glitter and lettering as possible.
Cut the napkin into 1-ply squares and Mod Podge them to the top portion of the sign. To get a nice smooth application, the best way to do this is to apply a small but decent amount of Mod Podge to the surface of the wooden sign. You want it to be nice and fully covered, but not thick and chunky. Then lay the napkin on top and pat lightly with your finger. Lay a piece of saran wrap over the top and use something flat and hard (like a credit card) to smooth the napkin out and get rid of all the bubbles. If you are displaying your sign indoors, there is no need to Mod Podge on the top of the napkin to seal it, but you can if you’d like.
Cut a portion of the White “Wooden” gift bag the same size as the bottom rectangle on the sign, and Mod Podge that on top. (You could also paint the bottom portion of the sign with white chalk paint for full coverage).
Next, glue your Rainbow Fuzzy Heart to the center of the top portion of the sign, and glue a metal heart to the left and to the right of it. If your galvanized metal hearts do not already have a small cardboard block behind it to raise it up off the sign, you may want to glue one onto the back to give it depth and dimension so it’s not flat on your sign.
Same thing goes for your metal “Love”, glue some small pieces of cardboard or foam board to the back, and then glue the “Love” to the bottom portion of the sign.
Glue a couple of Conversation Heart stickers on each side of the “Love” if you want some extra flare.
