Tips

We purchased our signboards at Lowes Home Improvement store. You could also find these ready-to-paint signboards at most of your local craft stores. You may also want to seal your signboard with a coat or two of clear polyurethane.

For making multiple signboards, consider using our re-useable custom lettering stencils.
