How To Stencil A Pumpkin Fall Sign

Looking for a quick and easy DIY Pumpkin fall sign to compliment your autumn décor? When it comes to autumn, I enjoy decorating. That’s maybe because I really love the colors brown and orange, the colors of the season inspire me.

Fall has arrived, and I believe there’s no time like right now to start decorating and embracing the fall season. There’s something so exciting about saying bye to the heat and hello to cooler autumn days. One of the best things about fall is the décor, and the idea that you can put up your decorations and keep them up all the way through Thanksgiving if you want to.

Follow along with me in the video as I create a fun fall inspired sign, then use the written steps in the tutorial below to make your own.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to use a sealant under a transfer?
You don’t NEED to use a sealant, but it might help to make sure that your transfer actually sticks well. If you don’t use a sealant, you might just need to press your transfer down with a little extra effort.

How to clean up a paint mistake?
Cleaning up fresh paint can be as easy as using a baby wipe and dabbing or wiping away your mistake. Just be careful not to wipe off anything you don’t want gone.
