Primitive Bunny Silhouette Sign

Today I'm going to create a rustic and repurposed easy Easter bunny silhouette sign.

This was a simple project with a primitive look.

First, I grabbed a bunny silhouette from the Graphics Fairy.

I enlarged the silhouette by eyeballing the easy design and sketching it onto a piece of parchment paper. 

I then transferred the design onto an old piece of beat up antique shelving using carbon paper in between the layers.

I painted the image on the shelf in with black craft paint. 

I let the paint dry, then heavily distressed the image with sandpaper.

    Very cute project. That bunny looks like he has lived on that board for at least fifty-two years!!
