Bunny Crossing Sign
If you have some old fence pickets lying around your garage, this is the perfect project for you.

First of all, paint the pickets the color you want - the recommendation is using colors that represent spring, such as blue or green. Then, make the letters and bunny using a pencil and use acrylic paint over it. Seal it all with a spray sealer and lastly, screw the pieces onto a post and place it in your favorite spot in the garden!
