Lemonade Stand Sign

This is a funny lemonade sign I made for a neighbor whose little gal is an entrepreneur. :-) And, only 25 cents for a lemonade?? C'mon, who could pass that up?!?! Goodness, you can't find anything for that price anymore. And, I always tip them.... and it is STILL a good deal.
Pretty simple sign. Plywood painted yellow and then green stripes added. Big different colored yellow oval in the low center and two dark green leaves added to one side. White and pink to make the bendy straw coming out....and then pink lettering. Mod podge it all for a final touch. I did this all by hand....and I have no doubt it would look better if it were done more precisely. BUT, I am a fan of vintage style....and that's what this reminds me of. Nothings perfect, right??
Here are the parties I linked up to.....be INSPIRED!!

  1. I love your lemonade sign. I like that you did it all by hand--it is one of a kind, not a cookie-cutter type sign. Great Job! Thanks for sharing.

  2. I think the sign is simply adorable. Love the straw in the lemon. Too cute and I'm sure your little neighbor appreciated your efforts.

  3. It is really wonderful that you made the sign for your neighbor's child. Many people don't help their neighbors and more. You are wonderful.
