DIY Halloween Porch signs

Halloween signs

My favorite outdoor signs for Halloween are the tall porch signs. I use the smaller ones for indoor decorating.

Halloween tall porch signs

I made the orange sign with paints and my daughter, Olivia, from Oliviaohern.com made the black sign and she used her Cricut Maker to cut with vinyl for the BOO you can see how she did that in her front porch boo sign post.

Supplies

Instructions:

Cut board to size and sand
Paint board and allow to dry
Print out BOO pattern
Tape together the BOO pattern
Center the pattern over the painted board with the transfer paper sandwiched between the two. Note: make sure the transferring side is facing the board.
Using painter’s tape tape down in a couple of places.
Using a ball point pen trace the BOO onto the board.
Lift the pattern and transfer paper
Paint inside the BOO lines allow to dry
If you would like to add a drop shadow use a black sharpie to make those lines allow to dry
Next sand the corner and edges for a modern rustic farmhouse style sign (optional)
Last step is to apply wax and polish
