Flipping for Bunnies πŸ°πŸ’— A Two-Tone Spring Sign Makeover

Hey hey friends! πŸ’• Melissa from Junk and Craft Treasures created this sweetest spring bunny boards using rub-on transfers and stencils. If you love a good two-for-one project, you’re going to adore this one!

We’re making two coordinating bunny signs β€” one soft pink and one muted mint β€” using the same supplies but with totally different vibes. It’s amazing how much color alone can transform a project.

Let’s jump in!

Jump to Project


Pink Bunny Board

Materials:

Step 1: Paint the Base

Start with a 12x7" chunky wood board and apply a coat of pale pink chalk paint. Allow it to dry completely.

Step 2: Sand & Prep

Once fully dry, lightly sand the board to create a smooth surface. Be sure to wipe away all dust and residue with a shop towel so your transfer adheres properly.

Step 3: Apply the Bunny Transfer

Cut out the girl bunny design from the Bunny Portraits transfer pack. Position it on the board and burnish carefully using your transfer tool.

Take your time and burnish firmly, especially if your board has grooves or texture. Slow and steady prevents wrinkles and lifting.

Step 4: Add the Damask Border

Choose a damask pattern and position it along the edge of the board. Using a stencil brush, fill it in with white paint. Repeat around the edges to create a soft border.

Step 5: Dry Brush the Edges

Lightly dry brush white paint along the edges of the board for a soft, rustic finish. Set aside to dry.

Helpful Tips:
  • If your wood has heavy grooves, consider sealing it first before applying a transfer.
  • Less paint on your stencil brush = cleaner lines.
  • If the color feels bright at first, trust the process β€” it all comes together once layered!

Mint Bunny Board

Materials:
  • 9Β½"x12" Wood Board
  • Muted Green Chalk Paint
  • White Chalk Paint
  • Same transfer and stencil supplies as above

Step 1: Paint & Dry

Apply a coat of muted green chalk paint and allow it to dry completely.

Step 2: Sand & Prep

Lightly sand the dried surface and remove any dust.

Step 3: Apply the Bunny Transfer

Position the boy bunny onto the board and burnish carefully with your transfer tool.

Work slowly over any indentations in the wood. Firm pressure ensures clean adhesion.

Step 4: Add Coordinating Border

Using the same damask stencil, position it in the corner of the board. Fill in with white paint and repeat the pattern to form a coordinating border.

Step 5: Finish with Dry Brushing

Lightly brush white paint along the edges to give it that charming rustic look.
