  Step 1

  Stain your wood board. I used Varathane American Walnut and did two coats. I usually use a rag to apply the stain to the wood but this time I used a section of felt and it worked really well! Apply the stain in the direction of the wood grain and apply evenly.

  Step 2

  Wait for the stain to dry. Once the stain is dry, trace the outline of any shape or animal you want. I used a stag head, which you can download below. A fox head, deer head, horse, mountain, and triangles would all look awesome. I printed out the stag head and used it to guide my outline.

  Trace the head

  Next, paint around the outline so that the head itself is the stained wood:

  Step 5

  I did 3 coats to ensure good coverage. After the paint dries, pick a quote and trace it in the middle or side of the shape or animal. I simply used “every day I love you.” Paint over the words with a contrasting color- I used a light peach color and did 2 coats.

  Step 6

  Wait for the paint to dry and then hang up or display your new large art piece!
