Back to School Craft: Door Sign

 

 

 

Hey there! Roberta here with a fun (and useful) craft! Now that I’m back at school, sometimes I don’t want to be interrupted in my room. When I’m studying or doing homework (or just talking on the phone to Cowabelle), I don’t want anyone to come in and bug me. Solution? Door sign! Here’s how to make one of your own!

 

What you need:

4 wooden pop sticks, paint, pretty paper, craft glue, scissors, marker, masking tape, yarn

 

What you do:

1.       Glue your craft sticks together so they make a frame. When the glue is dry, paint your frame any way you like.

2.       Cut a piece of pretty paper out to fit the frame.

3.       On the paper, write “Genius at work” or “Please do not disturb” (whatever message you want to get across). Glue your paper in place (with the frame in front).

4.       Cut an 8-inch piece of yarn. Tape either side to the back of the frame. This will allow you to hang up your sign.

5.       Next time you’re hard at work, hang your sign on your door.

    This is a great idea for a craft, since you can put any message on it. I think I’ll work on this one tomorrow.

      I’ve made picture frames like this before! If you used a thin piece of wood instead of paper and painted it with chalkboard paint, you could change your messages. I have a small chalkboard like it. ~DP
