Plus is super easy! Here’s the list of the things you need and a few simple steps you need to follow to create them. Take a look:

Supplies:

  • 4-5 inch wooden cutouts in circles or hearts
  • 12 inch wooden dowels for the flower stems
  • Basswood sheets, thin enough to be cut with scissors
  • Acrylic paint in solid and/or glitter colors
  • Paintbrushes
  • Scissors
  • Hole punch
  • Letter stickers or paint markers
  • Hot glue

Step 1: First we will start painting the cutout circles and hearts as well as the wooden dowels with a base coat of acrylic paint. You can paint them in colors that match the signs from “It’s a Small World” or get creative and improvise!

How To Make Them

Paint the wooden cutouts and wooden dowels with a base coat of acrylic paint in colors that match the flower or heart signs from “it’s a small world.” Allow to dry completely. For any shapes that are not found already pre-cut (like petals, leaves, or small dots), the desired shape can be drawn onto thin basswood sheets and cut out with scissors.

Small dots can be punched out from the wood sheet using a hole punch. Paint any basswood cutouts with a base coat of the acrylic paint. Allow to dry completely. If more details are needed, use fine-tipped paintbrushes to add details atop the base coat of paint.

If you’re using letter stickers, paint them with acrylic paint in colors that match the signs from “it’s a small world.” Paint markers can also be used to write out any script.

Add any final paint details with a fine-tipped paintbrush. Hot glue the finished wood pieces together to create mini versions of the iconic flower, heart, or leaf signs.
