Another Way to Make Easy Signs

I saw a new way to make signs online the other day

(for the life of me I can't find where now)

and I decided I had to give it a try

It's even easier than the method I used on my EAT sign

I printed out my phrase in Word in the font & size I wanted

Grabbed a board I had sitting out in the garage

(after I spray painted two coats of white on it)

Then I turned the letters around and used a pencil

to shade all over the back of the them 

Then I flipped my letters back over

placee them where I wanted on my board

(still wondering if this would work on walls too...)

and traced/outlined my letter on the paper with the pencil

When I was done and lifted my paper up

I had an outline of my letters

(if you enlarge the picture you can see it better)

Then I just filled in the letters with my paint

And then I sanded it down gently to mask any mistakes I made :)

And that's it!

I know this has probably been around for ages

but it's new to me and I'm so happy I found it

since a Sillhoutte is probably not in my near future :)

Oh and this is what we saw outside our back window last night

Ugh 

Yup that's hail/sleet/rain mixture

Come on Spring - please hurry up!!
