 We're getting ready for our first farmers market, and we're going to show you what we made And get your opinion And get your thoughts right now What is up a welcome back? Do you like to do a building or make it so do we and we do a new video every Friday? This week we're preparing for the farmers market, so I think we've shared with you I know we shared it on social media I think we shared it in another video that we're going to make our first go at a farmers market So for the next couple of weeks We're going to be trying out some projects and looking for your feedback this week We're going to start with the front porch welcome sign Everybody loves those. They're pretty versatile. You can have one for every season So what we're going to do is put a new spin on it because a lot of people have requested the welcome sign Front porch welcome sign planter Yes, so we're going to do two versions the first version is going to be the planter That's kind of classic all season. We're going to do welcome to our home again But we're going to have the interchangeable Oh a lot of people have wanted to see one of those in our store have asked us about those and you've seen them Everywhere, so we've got some new O's that will add to our store And we got a couple of interchangeable ones We're going to make with this project and the second one is going to be a fun summer planter with bright colors and This will just be a one-season planter. So I'm going to give you two options We're going to use two different techniques for the welcome to our home one with the interchangeable Oh, we're going to use fence pickets and we're going to use those to make the planter as well So it's going to kind of look like a pallet sign Pallet board pallet wood. Yeah Anyway, and then the second one we're going to use a one by 12 and stencil the front of it So one's going to have 3d letters and one's going to have a stencil. You'll see what I'm talking about. Let's get started Step one, we're going to gather all our supplies. We really just needed one one by 12 Right foot long this board is not the cheapest board. So it was $24 So it's not going to be the cheapest option But it's going to be the simple option because you're just making a couple of cuts and that's it You're just ready to paint pretty much from there. It's definitely the easiest option step two Never gonna make all of our cuts. I Like my pocket saw, but it can't really do along the boards anything over like five inches Can't really do it. So my next go-to is a circular saw with this Craig jig guide This thing is so great. I will tell you you do not have to have a table saw with this Craig jig guide You it butts up against the board. It doesn't go anywhere The saw you just put this little track onto your saw with a couple of screws And it keeps it in a perfectly straight line. It really is super handy. We use it a lot to cut down Large sheets of plywood. Yeah, MDF plywood. Oh, yeah, all of our MDF. Yes So I thought I'd share that with you if you don't have one highly recommend Not yet a sponsor, but working on it We're cutting two boards at 11 and a quarter and then two more boards at nine and three quarters Not to be confused with the platform. I said it earlier. He didn't get the joke But maybe you guys will took me a second this time, too I might be slow Some of us get it some of us don't Garrett's created this cute little SVG for us in Photoshop, and we're gonna cut it using our 24 inch US cutter to create a stencil The SVG will be available in our store. You can purchase it and easily slice it and cut it on your Cricut Step four time to paint. We're gonna paint everything white Yes, we're gonna start off with the base coat of white and then we're gonna use our cute little stencil colors I'm not even sure you can see them over there to paint our steps Paint our stencil. We're gonna use our bear chalk paint. This one is in tin white TIN tin tin white and then the letters are gonna be in black and this is called classic noir with our stencil We're gonna lay the stencil down before we assemble it and Finish up our painting We added a thin layer of Mod Podge before it we added our paint And we peeled the stencil up before the paint was dry Step five time to assemble We're just gonna use some a gorilla wood glue and an inch and a quarter brad The nail not the guy. We used one of the 11 and a quarter inch boards as the front We glued and nailed that to the nine and three quarter inch sides And then we put 11 and a quarter inch board as the base and we glued and nailed that to the bottom Finally we attached it to the sign Easy killer number one Is it done? Yeah, you can see in the final shot somewhere at the yeah, I keep it flowers to it. Just take it over there Sign planter number two This is our classic all-season planter for this one. We're just gonna use the fence pickets and the 3d letters Step one, we're gonna gather all of our materials We needed three dog-eared fence pickets and some scrap a one-by-twos about four feet three feet We get a lot of questions on our fence pickets as to whether or not we sand them because sometimes you don't see a Sand them and that's because sometimes we don't have to one of the home improvement stores that we go to Has really nice fence pickets and I just need like a like sanding if that especially since it's gonna sit on the front porch But these are super rough. I mean, I don't know if you can see that. That's terrible That was like somebody chewed on the end of that So this one is going to definitely take some sanding now. It doesn't have to be perfect again It's gonna sit on the front porch, but I won't paint it quite this rough So we'll hit it with some you know rough sandpaper to knock some of this texture down Hit it with a little bit of the 80 Be good to go. Yeah, a little bit of elbow grease a little bit of 80 To we're gonna make all over cuts. We need four eleven and three quarters four ten and a half's and Then about four nine ish is We're gonna do our design I'm gonna take some MDF over to the glow forge and cut out our letters and a couple of those interchangeable O's And we'll make those available in our store so you can go get the front porch welcome planter. What is it front porch? Plant what no welcome sign planter. Yeah, I think it's the yeah welcome sign planter front porch welcome sign planter Front porch welcome sign planter That's what I'm gonna label the kit as there you go step four Now we do some staining and some painting We're gonna paint our letters and all of our little O pieces And I'm gonna stain the boards now. We assemble it. We're just gonna use these eleven and a half inch pieces that we have Some wood glue and a one inch bread The nail not the guy And these are gonna go in the back this time. Yeah, not that far down I think I think you need some. Yeah, because it needs a little bit. Yeah, right there if you could do that These are just slightly warped and so the closer to the center we get the Less they'll be warped Go get your biggest go give me that pumpkin You're famous for that And the wrong side of the E Again We glued and nailed a two by two to the front bottom outside corner of the sign Then we glued and nailed two two by twos across two eleven and three-quarter inch picket pieces Next we attached the sign and the front piece. We just made using two ten and a half picket pieces We did the same one for the other sign Finally attached the bottom using the two eleven inch picket pieces thing for the hole We're jumping on that interchangeable Bandwagon, but we're gonna use this really strong magnet that we found on Amazon and then these Washers that you picked up from Walmart Think this is strong magnet. It's Crazy strong. We've been playing with them. I broke one broke one. All right. The only thing that we didn't Count for or realize is that when we add the magnet in the center of this. Oh, I Don't know how we're gonna attach the oh, so it'll never be an oh again. It'll always be something a holiday something Yes, it's always some holiday summer. I just it's just that I didn't catch that until just now when I was like, oh Well, I'm gonna put that oh in there So I'm just taking an inch and a quarter force their bit and just gonna Go in just a scooch. It's a little little touch little touch of the Forstner bit We use clear gorilla glue to attach our magnet to the back of the board And then we use our washers and the clear gorilla glue for the interchangeable o's Let these dry let these dry plants in it And these are like I said, I'll be available in the store and we have a flip-flops We have a Christmas wreath and a bunch more. So just thought I'd show you a little sample of what we've got so far We're about out of time We got to get going so we'll see you guys next week where we'll do it build it or make it again
