my unusual yellow palette for Valentine's Day combines with a honey of a theme
in this third of three related projects...

a small piece of scrap wood found in my garage became this cute sign,
which could hang on a wall or sit on a tiered tray or mantel.
the addition of dimensional elements makes it special - and still so easy to create!

paired with my last two projects, it forms a sweet vignette on my mantel.

you can do this! continue reading for the easy how-to...

the sign is the third of three projects created as a 'set' for my mantel...
together, they send the 'oh, honey, BEE my Valentine' message quite clearly!

the word 'bee' was created with black and white bakers' twine,
simply twisted into letters and then glued in place on the board.

the word 'MINE' was painted with a small brush and bright yellow craft paint -
make it easy for yourself and use a stencil! or use stickers - REALLY easy!

the buzzing bee is held aloft by a wire that evokes a twisting, curling 'flight path',
held in place on the back of the sign with hot glue.

this image was manipulated in my editing program,
to make the 'mine' letters larger and remove the black/white line beneath them.
this was actually how i envisioned the sign before i made it... 
but i like the other result better! 

this BEE my Valentine mini-theme has been so much fun to create!
