Life is Sweet Wood Pineapple

Sharing is caring!

It’s thrift store makeover time and this month I’m sharing my Life is Sweet Wood Pineapple. I took a wood pineapple that I scored at my local thrift store for only $1 and turned it into a cute sign with some acrylic paint.

Here is what I started with. Our local thrift store has dollar days, so I scored this cutey for only a buck!

Life is Sweet Wood Pineapple Supplies:

  • wood pineapple
  • acrylic paint
  • paint brush

So I played around with some fun fonts to create the look I wanted for the sign.  I printed it out on regular copy paper and used painter’s tape to place it on top of the wood pineapple.

Then I took a sharp pencil and traced over the letters, pressing firmly into the wood. After tracing the letters, I pulled off the paper and you could see the letters pressed into the wood.

Tip: I recommend doing this in a well-lit room, it makes it much easier to see the pressed in letters.

Painting Life is Sweet Sign

Then I took a thin paintbrush and white acrylic paint and traced over the lettering to create my Life is Sweet Sign.

I just adore anything pineapple, so I am loving how this cute pineapple sign turned out.  Here are some other signs that I’ve made:

  • Pottery Barn’ish Beach Signs
  • Large DIY Sign
  • Thrift Store Tray to Christmas Sign

      If you’ve got an awesome boss I’m sure he/she would completely understand the need to thrift 😉 I’m glad you love it and hope you find your own cute pineapple!
