Instructions

1. Paint the wood using white craft paint. Roll on one side, let dry, and flip over. Paint other side and let dry.

Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the wood; don't do the edges. Let dry 15-20 minutes and repeat.

While the Mod Podge is drying, separate the napkin from the bottom layers. You can use tape to help. You just want the top layer with the design.

Place the napkin down onto the wood. Place a piece of parchment paper on top of the napkin, and run the craft iron across the top several times. While you are doing this, the Mod Podge is melting below the napkin, and the napkin is adhering. Keep going until the napkin is fully adhered, including the edges.

Let the flower cool after ironing. Use an emery board to gently sand away the excess napkin. Sanding at an angle works very well. Continue until all the extra napkin is removed around all edges.

Spray paint the words with the colors of your choice. I used white and hung the words outside to paint. Let dry completely.

Using the hot glue gun, glue the trim on the back of the hanger around the edges. I like to start at the bottom. Glue a few inches at a time. Let cool and trim the final length with scissors.

Glue down the words onto the front of the project with the glue gun. Let cool before adding ribbon to hang.

Notes

My wood flower came with a hole at the top. If you choose to drill into the top, use painter's tape on both sides and drill through that so the wood doesn't splinter and break.
