First, using brown wood stain and White Craft Gauze Cheesecloth, stain a DIY Unfinished Wood Paddle dark brown.
Download the free Tasting Number Printable here. Next, transfer the "tasting numbers" to the board. Turn the printed paper over and use a pencil or chalk to scribble over the back of each number. Then turn the printed number back up, use a pencil to trace the outline of the number design. Once the outline is transferred to the board go over it with a Marvy® White Fine & Chisel Tip Chalk Markers to fill the gaps and give clean edges to the design.
Next, use hot glue to attach a Wood Grain Table Number to the handle of the paddle. When secure, glue a stalk of wheat to the bottom of the table number.
Next, place a White Battery-Operated Tea Light Candle in three Navy Flecked Mercury Votive Candle Holders. Place one candle at each tasting number. The candles represent a beer flight.
Next, take a Beer Growler and fill it approx 1/4 full of barley. Then use the growler as a vase, placing decorative dried wheat in the growler. Optional download our growler "Love is Brewing" design here and cut it onto vinyl using a Cricut, trace it onto the growler or have a calligrapher transfer it to the growler.
Finally, place the growler on the board between the candles and the table number.
