Here’s a super simple nativity gift idea.  I made four of them in a few hours (mostly drying time for the paint) and have a few more gifts checked off my list.  If you want the step by step, here it is:

1) Cut 1×4 wood into 5.5 inch pieces (or whatever size you want).

2) White wash the wood with two part white paint and one part water.  Paint all sides and front and back.

3) While drying, cut vinyl.  This is a Silhouette shape sold on their website.

4) Apply vinyl to wood when paint is dry.

So easy and less than a dollar each!
