Unique signage continues to be a huge trend in bridal showers and weddings. Now, natural woods and geometric shapes are being used to create new modern signs.

Soft pastels come alive on this statement circular wood shape, accented with boho feather and flowers elements.

With a few simple supplies and these easy steps, you can create this pretty pastel wooden sign. A custom addition to your bridal shower bagel bar.

First, paint the larger DIY Unfinished Wood Sign with Tropical Acrylic Paint. I added White Acrylic Paint to get the perfect shade of pastel.

Next, paint the smaller DIY Unfinished Wood Circles in varying tropical shades.

Once the paint is dry, print and cut out the Bagel Bar template. 

Rub a pencil onto the entire back of the cut out words. Use washi tape to place the words onto the painted circles. Then use a pencil to trace the letters on the printable. This will transfer the word onto your project.

Finally, use a American Crafts™ Permanent Chalk Markers to write over the traced letters. For the larger Bagel Bar sign you may need to do 2 coats of chalk pen.

Next, paint Jumbo Duck Quill tips with alternative tropical paint colors.

Then use Scor Tape to attach the feathers to the top left corner of the larger circular sign.

Alternatively use a hot glue gun to glue to the edge of the sign.


TIP: Water down the paint to ensure the feathers do not harden as much, this keeps a softer look.

Next, remove some single flowers / petals from the Pink Hydrangea Garland and attach these in the center where the feathers join.
