Erika, our in-house craft guru, decided to cast a spell on our studio entryway with a stenciled Halloween wooden sign. She used our Chevron Alphabet Stencils, Spider Craft Stencil, and our Dancing Rat Craft Stencil. Erika scooped up a quarter inch piece of plywood at Home Depot and had it cut so that it was 4 feet tall and about 12 inches wide. This created her wood canvas.
