Waving American Flag

Really great project. Interested in the details of wood type and the finish.

The wood is just pine 2×4’s. The finish is Rit blue & red dye. Topped of with Minwax Gloss Polyurethane spray. The spray kept making the blue bleed through the white painted stars. I had to paint them four times by hand , following the initial stencil pattern. I followed a you tube video. Thanks, Jay

Efforts paid off as it looks great.

That came out great. Looks naturally wavy but with crisp details.

Nice job

I figured this would be a lot of dusty work but the end product sure looks nice.
Well done.
