Last month I shared with you a Fall Sign that I made for Thanksgiving and my fall décor. I love it so much, and love that it makes me sing and think about one of my all time favorite hyms…”Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing.” I had one small wall in my office/craft room that was still empty and I was having a hard time deciding what to put there…till now.
I wanted to have a permanent reminder of my favorite song YEAR ROUND rather than just around Thanksgiving. I like the way it helps to remind me and put things into perspective.
I simply took a left-over piece of wood from one of our past projects and sanded it to a nice smooth finish. I spray painted it white. When it was dry I cut out a stencil on my Silhouette that I designed and then placed it onto the board.
Then I simply made sure to cover the entire board except for the letters that I wanted yellow. I wanted the sign to be really simple, clean and fresh looking.
My board is 24 inches in length but as you can see you could shorten yours a bit if you don’t like the length. I personally like it this long with the quote only taking up a small portion of the board.
And…of course I want to share it with you. So I am sharing the stencil with you so that you can make your own Thanksgiving Sign. I also quickly turned the stencil into a Thanksgiving Printable for those of you who might just want to print something out and stick it in a picture frame.

Dear Amy, is beautiful! Do you cut the stencil out of plain paper, or do you use something else?
I cut the stencil out in vinyl with my Silhouette! You can print it out and transfer it with transfer paper though and do it the old fashioned way.
Love this! That is one of my favorite songs, as well. I am having trouble downloading the stencil. I can get the printables, but there doesn’t seem to be a link for the stencil. Thanks.
This is also my favorite song! I keep the lyrics tucked in my Bible. Thanks for sharing the download.
Love that! I need to do that too. Thanks for sharing!
I love this song as well! I have a sign with the lyrics on my wall, but isn’t it “fount”, not font?
Oh MY Goodness!!! I sat and looked at that and thought it didn’t look right!! I even typed FOUNT in the beginning!! I will fix the printables. I will just paint over the top line and redo that one line! I wonder if I would have ever noticed if you hadn’t pointed that out! LOL!!
It’s beautiful!! What a great reminder throughout the year. Thanks so much for the printable!!
You are so welcome. I love the reminder year round too!
LOVE this. You are seriously awesome. But you already know that, right?
You are seriously the sweetest! Thanks for always being so supportive!

Favorite hymn ever!! BEAUTIFUL!

Can I make this stencil with an original Cricut? I’ve been reading about the expressions machine but I don’t know if my old Cricut can make it?
You should be able to use it if you can use an svg file on Cricut. I am not that familiar with them…but I actually just started playing with one so I could learn it as well!
