Supplies:

  • Rectangle Wood Shape

  • Rectangle Frame Shape

  • Name Letters

  • Numbers

  • Black Chalk Paint

  • Paint Brush

  • Multipurpose Adhesive

  • Sheet of paper or cloth to protect your surface

  • Painter’s Tape (Optional)

Step 1: 

Start by painting your name letters. You’ll paint them with the black chalk paint using a foam paint brush. A foam paint brush works really well to get just the top.  If you find your letters hard to handle, double a piece of painter's tape, add it to your surface, and place your letter on top. This will hold it in place as you paint. 

Step 2:

Paint your numbers and then let them dry. Add a second coat of paint if needed.

Step 3: 

Add a coat of black paint to the frame. Let it dry and add another coat if needed. 

Step 4: 

Flip the frame over and add adhesive around the entire frame . 

Step 5: 

Place the frame on top of the sign and press down to make sure it’s nice and adhered.

Step 6: 

Arrange your letters and your numbers on your sign until you get the design you like .

Step 7: 

Add glue to the back of the letters and press them down on the sign.  Using a ruler will help keep your letters straight as you glue them down.

Step 8: 

Now add glue to the back of your numbers and glue them to the sign.  Again, use a ruler to help keep them straight.

Now you just need to hang (or lean) your sign is your favorite spot. Enjoy!
