Halloween Boo Sign

Yes, I craft sometimes too. Don't look so shocked!

It's not really anything I do every weekend, I don't have a craft room, and definitely don't expect me to pull out my bedazzler! I do love, however, browsing Michael's for hours and I most certainly love making my own holiday decorations.

I'm sure you have all seen these signs (or something similar) floating around the internets so I couldn't help but share my own. The best part is that you can make them any way you like by picking whatever letters and paper you fancy. Thus making this a multi-holiday craft!

And, it whips up in less than an hour. If I can do it with two toddlers pulling at everything, so can you!!!

You Will Need:

1. Wooden letters
2. Scrapbook paper
3. Mod Podge
4. Ribbon
5. Any extras you like 

I found everything at Michaels, the letters run about $2 a piece depending on the size you get. I ended up getting a whole pack of 4" by 6" scrapbook paper because our Michaels had an awful selection of Halloween themed paper in the individual sheets, the entire book was only $3.99.

Start by tracing the the letters (back side facing up) onto the back of your scrapbook paper.

Cut out the letters using scissors, I also used a pairing knife for the centers, just make sure you have your paper on a flat/hard surface.
Coat the front side of the wooden letters with a layer of Mod Podge and stick the paper to it. Smooth lightly as you go but do not worry about air bubbles. Let dry completely.
Once dry, brush a top coat over the letters and let this dry. The Mod Podge creates a nice finish on the letters.

Tie the letters with pieces of ribbon (I did wish I had purchased a solid black ribbon) and then Mod Podge on your accessories.
I ended up not using the Happy Halloween accessory so I am saving it for another project.
This whole project ended up costing around $12, but this also left me with extra paper, ribbon the Happy Halloween sign.

Have fun everyone!! Life is too short not to be creative!
