St. Patrick’s Day Wood and Vinyl Clover Sign
Is it a Shamrock or a Clover? I became curious after Krystal and I whipped up this cute sign. I wondered if Shamrock was the same thing as a Clover and I learned that they are yet they aren’t!

After I got my wooden fish bundle made to hang on my picket fence. I knew that my beach porch still needed more to feel complete. Coming across the idea for this sign that says beachaholic was just perfect! I just couldn’t help myself, I wish I lived closer to the beach. So, I decided to make my own take on the beachaholic sign. I used a board that was 5″ by 20″ I painted the board a teal blue green color.
