The dollar stores and craft stores have such cute wooden signs for holidays, don’t they? They make fun additions to seasonal displays and vignettes. But one thing that bugs me is the stickers on the backsides that either don’t come off completely or leave a sticky residue. Here’s my quick solution I use on all my seasonal signs:
Select a scrapbooking paper in a complimentary color and pattern. With a pencil, trace the outline of the sign onto the blank side of the paper. Cut along the outline, staying a little inside the line so the cutout will be a tad smaller that the sign.
Spray some Craft Bond on the blank side of the paper. This is the side that will be bonded to the sign, not the side that will show.
Before the adhesive dries, quickly place the paper cutout on the sign, lining it up within the borders, and give it a rub all over to make sure it adheres completely.
Hey, doesn’t that look better! And if my signs are arranged in displays where the back might be visible, it’s still pretty on the back.
Brilliant!
Why, thank you, mam! ☺️
