You can find the French wreaths at Bella Cottage click here. I just went to their website, which was recently redesigned and I am not familiar with where they put the applique section, but there is a phone number to call.
This is how the cabinet doors started.
I painted them with a paint I had color matched to the Rustoleum Ivory Silk color. I didn't want to spray paint these. I wanted them brushed. Much more economical.
I lettered with black acrylic craft paint and shaded with gold rub n' buff applied with a liner brush. For the rest of the directions, refer to my above link for the staining and aging of these signs. Make them look as new or as old as you like. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will find some inspiration here to create your own magnificent signs.

Hi Maggie. I just found this on Pinterest. So beautiful! Ironically, I grew up in Simi! Small world. Would you be interested in making these again and selling them?
