Mixed Media Dishwasher Signs

What do you do when your clean/dirty dishwasher signs are destroyed by your cat? Well you make a new one, of course, lol. This time, instead of a simple paper sign, I decided to make a mixed media sign.

These were super fun to make and they look great in the kitchen.

The dirty side was fun, I painted with black gesso and added metal flowers and elements along with some Finnabair waxes. I like how it looks a little dingy and grungy. Perfect for the dirty side. 

I wanted the clean side to look bright and clean looking. So I used white gesso and pretty Prima Marketing flowers to create a bright sign. 

I adhered them together with a ribbon in the middle and hung it on my kitchen all above the dishwasher. I think this was the perfect solution to let everyone in the house know what is going on with the dishwasher. 

I love how this turned out! I think I will make a few more signs for around the house.
