Materials Needed

Round wooden sign
Cutting machine (Cricut or Silhouette)
Vinyl (in your preferred colors)
Transfer tape
Paint and brushes
Free SVG download (link below)
Step-by-Step Instructions -- Video Tutorial - link below
Step 1: Download the Free SVG
First, head over to the freebie page to download the free SVG file. This file is specially designed for this project and is compatible with both Cricut and Silhouette cutting machines.
Step 2: Upload the SVG to Your Cutting Machine Software
Once you've downloaded the SVG file, upload it to your Cricut Design Space or Silhouette Studio software. Be sure to attach all of the pieces together, and then adjust the size of the design to fit your round wooden sign.
Step 3: Cut the Design
Load your vinyl into the cutting machine and cut the bee design. Make sure to weed out any excess vinyl, leaving only the design you want to transfer to the wooden sign.
Step 4: Prepare Your Wooden Sign
If you want to add a background color to your wooden sign, now is the time to paint it. Choose a color that complements your bee design. Allow the paint to dry completely before moving on to the next step.
Step 5: Transfer the Vinyl Design
Use transfer tape to pick up your vinyl design. Carefully place the design onto your wooden sign, ensuring it's centered and smooth. Press down firmly and slowly peel off the transfer tape, leaving the vinyl design on the sign.
Step 6: Admire Your Bee-utiful New Door Sign
And there you have it—a stunning, handmade round wooden door sign with a bee design that's ready to hang on your front door!
