Step

Washi tape the word onto the wood slice and trace the letters with a pencil.

Step

Remove the template to reveal the word on the wood.

Step

Use a flat-bristled paintbrush and acrylic paint to paint the letters.

Step

Because each wood slice is going to be different sizes and shapes, we simply lightly drew 3 lines around the outside of the wood slice and hammered in nails every inch and in a line straight across.

Step

Tie the end of a skein of yarn around one of the nails and wrap the yarn around the nails going all the way around the wood slice. When complete, tie of the yarn on a nail and cut off the excess. Repeat this process for the other yarn colors.

Step

Hang your unique string art on the wall or prop it up on your mantel to greet your holiday season guests.
