Beware of Sharks.... Pool Sign

When crafty kids get bored often times they crack open the paint and design weird stuff.

On canvas.

At least that's how it works at my house.

Then when they're done painting a usually random vision, they expect me to hang it somewhere.

And more times than not, it just doesn't match my decor.

I wasn't hanging that shark in the kitchen.

Instead I got out some of the cedar lats I picked up for a couple bucks for a stack of about 50, as well as my sample pots of Maison Blanche paint and figured out where I could hang a great white shark.

 The lats were all painted first with a coat of Wrought Iron.

I set up my Silhouette machine at it's place of prestige on my computer chair, and printed out some words.

I applied the letters to the lats and painted a coat of Robins Egg blue over them all.

Sometimes I like my signs to bark out orders with things like "walk" and "close gate".

And of course no matter where you are you have to beware of sharks.....

You know where this is heading yet?

Outside.

About 4 coats of sealer over the lats and canvas, and a few shots from a staple gun and  the shark has a home.

 A silly pool sign that maybe just maybe might remind people to close the gate.
