BOO Halloween Sign DIY

It's not Halloween yet, but now's the time to start crafting so everything will be ready for your October decorating. We made a spooky sign out of just scrap wood for our first Halloween DIY project of the season.


We started by finding a good background piece, sanding off the rough edges, and painting it black.


Next, we measured our back board and used Lightburn software and our X-tool laser to cut a rectangle the right size for a border. We fit some ghosts and bats onto the same piece of scrap plywood and cut those out too.


Finally, we painted all the pieces and glued them together. 




You could easily buy ready made shapes to make your sign. Cutting your own is fun though, and then you get to choose the size and make laser cut shapes you might not be able to find in a store. (If you don't have a laser, message us from our Etsy shop and we can get some made for you!)


Happy Halloween crafting everyone!
