How to Make Welcome Signs
Every home needs a welcoming feel that puts visitors and friends at ease as they enter your house. Something as simple as a friendly "Welcome" sign can make a good impression from the curb and let visitors feel at home even before they get to your door. Craft stores sell them, department stores sell them, you can even order them online. But if you are looking for something specific to match your decor and style, then making one yourself is a good choice.- Purchase a piece of 1-by-10 pine at your local hardware store and have it cut to 30 inches long. If you want a cleaner look, find a piece of pine with few flaws. If your style is rustic, then knots are ideal.
- Sand the edges of the pine with a 220-grit sandpaper. This will help smooth out any rough spots that can cause slivers.
- Paint or stain your pine board using a 2-inch foam brush. If your sign will be in direct sunlight, use an exterior paint. If you are staining the board, apply the stain with a foam brush and wipe it clean with an old white T-shirt. Allow 3 hours for paint to dry; if you are using stain, let it dry for 24 hours.
- Apply another coat of paint or stain if desired. Allow for the same drying time as before.
- Apply vinyl lettering to spell out your "welcome," following the package directions. Vinyl lettering can be bought at craft and home stores, or if you are looking for a specific font, you can custom-order the letters online.
- Go over the top of your welcome sign with a water-based polyurethane, using a 2-inch foam brush. Allow the polyurethane to dry for 6 hours.
- Buff the welcome sign with a buffing pad. Wipe clean with a tack cloth.
- Apply a second coat of polyurethane. This is especially important if your sign will be outdoors.
- Add a picture hanger to the back of your sign, or you can use framing wire and a staple gun to hang it.
NOTE:
- Do not rinse, just wipe it with a clean damp cloth

05-05-2011- Other Thoughts: i thought I could hang it on the wall but the panel is on the back of the sign, so it's only good for placing on the stone or something like that so that the sun can shine on the back. Other than that, it looks great!
