Halloween Road Sign

I finished up this project a few days ago and I am lovin’ the way it turned out. Plus, it was made from pallet wood, so it was free!

I brainstormed and searched online to come up with the street names (aren’t they clever?). I cut my pallet wood in half and cut an arrow shape on one end. I didn’t mark or measure because I wanted them to all look different. I painted one coat on the front and left the edges to finish later.  

I made some stencils with my vinyl cutter,

painted,

removed,

and lightly sanded.

I laid out them out on a painted 2″ x 4″, until I got them spaced and angled the way I liked. I nailed them on with some old rusty nails. I then took some very watered down black paint and quickly painted over the front and edges and wiped most of it off with a wet paper towel. I took it outside, stuck it in the dirt, and piled some rocks around it.

 

 

I love the colors and the fun Halloween fonts. This project was fun and so easy, when Halloween is over, I’m gonna make one for fall!
