Hi Rae Gun readers! When Marissa asked us to join in her Hunger Game series, we immediately said YES and created a shabby sign from our favorite line in the series:
Before we get started, we want to introduce ourselves. We are twin sisters, Kelli and Kristi who run a DIY craft blog, Lolly Jane.
We share tutorials about crafts, home improvement, family life and the occasional baked good. Enough about us, let’s get this tutorial started!
We loved The Hunger Games books and we were motivated by all the cute love quotes throughout the series. This is how our Rustic Hunger Games Ombre Sign came about. When Peeta said, “I just want to spend every possible minute of the rest of my life with you“, we simply gushed, as any girl would.

Supplies needed are simple:
Wood board, Acrylic paint, Vinyl Lettering Stencil, Foam brushes
To create your own:
We cut our own wood to 16″L x 10″W. We created the lettering in our vinyl program and cut it out, but we backward weeded it so it became a stencil. Then we painted the letters 4 different colors, creating a unique ombre look. Don’t forget the core of this sign….the little mockingjay symbol in a light gray hiding in the corner. After it was dry, we distressed it with sandpaper, poly’d it for protection and you’re done:
Don’t want to bother making one? Come on over to Lolly Jane right now for a chance to win this very sign!
Thanks so much for having us, Marissa!
