Distressed Wood Sign {how to}

Today I am sharing a tutorial on how to make a distressed wood sign like this one I made for my son's bedroom makeover. I love this saying and I thought it would be the perfect reminder for my son to see everyday.

You can go here to checkout the full makeover.

First start off with your wood of choice.

Next, I knew that when I distressed the sign I wanted it to have several colors showing through. So I started with a dark blue base color and started to paint. I love that this method allows for imperfections.
