In this blog post, I’ll be showing you how to use a rotary tool to shape MDF wood into something that looks great in any kitchen. Get ready for an easy and fun project – let’s start crafting!
First you will want to laser cut your design of choice out of MDF. I use these cut utensil designs that can be found in the Single Line Font + Design Bundle that has 709 designs and 3 fonts!
Once you have it cut and unmasked grab your rotary tool, I am using a Ryobi Lithium Rotary Tool. I love this tool so much because it is not bulky and it super easy to handle. I like using a speed of 2-3 with a sandpaper bit. From there I slowly move it around the edge knocking of the edge making it more rounded and organic. Tip: go slow and let the tool do the work.
Next, take a fine grit sandpaper and smooth out the MDF. This allows a nice surface for painting.
After you have it prepped, it is time to spray paint. I use a metallic spray paint.
One the spray paint has dried it is time to glue the utensils to your sign board. I also added a foil quilled 'Let's Eat' tag to the bottom.
