Step 1
Paint wood plaque background color Black, let dry.

Sketch out candy canes onto paper and transfer onto plaque.

Using Testors color Stop Sign paint words and use Testors color Ruby for shading.
Step 5
Paint candy canes white and add stripes to it using Stop Sign. Once dry add a highlight line.

Now using Rub & Buff rub gold onto the edge of plaque. Let dry and rub some off to make it appear vintage. I also used my paint brush to highlight letters in gold.

Using chalk, I rubbed the side of the chalk against the plaque edges to give a frosted look.
