Wine racks need a little bit of fun decor don’t you think? I’ve been looking for a sign or some kind of whimsical wine quote lately, but haven’t found one that was the size I wanted or the style I wanted. I was at Marshall’s a couple of days ago and they had all of their coastal decor on clearance. The shape of this sign was right, but it said, “Beach House” on it. As much as I would love to own a beach house, I do not. But I do own some sand paper and paint!
The sign was marked down to $2.50. I was excited to get started on it and forgot to take a picture of it until I was half way through sanding the words off. I loved the blue color and it matches my green and blue decor.
Once I had the words removed, I gave one side of it a light coat of chalk paint.
After that dried, I started to think about how I wanted to paint the quote on it. That’s when I decided I would make it more versatile and use chalk board paint on it. This way, I can change out the quote when I want to.
I sanded the edges to let some of the white chalk paint show and used a chalk paint pen to write the quote on it.
There are so many cute sayings, but I decided for now to use, “Oh, look! It’s wine o’clock!”

I have been wanting to do a cheeky little sign exactly like this for our dining room. I stenciled the whole room but the area between a door frame and the crown molding was too tight. It looks perfect with your wine table and such an inviting quote!

Thank you, Rachel. Fun little signs are a great way to add a little something to a space.
