DIY Sign Making
Sat December 2, 2017
10:00 am
Hello friends! We’re having a DIY Sign-Making Event on December 2, 2017 from 10:00am-2:00pm. The coordinator for this event is Jessi Scheberl, a member of Messiah in Eau Claire and owner of JS Designs, a sign-making/sign-event business . Please feel free to invite others! Just make sure to let Jessi know what they want to make if they aren’t on Facebook. To attend this event, you only need to do TWO THINGS.
STEP 1) DECIDE WHAT TO MAKE.
There are several basic sizes from which to choose: 11×11 or 12×12 ($15), 12×16 or 16×16 ($20), 8×48 (porch sign) or 10×24 ($20). Any other sign sizes that exceed 300 square inches are $30. She also has a 4×4 post, 24 inches tall, with a hook that can be used to display a small sign outside for $20, $25 if you’d also like to make a small sign to go with the post (scroll down to see pictures of previous projects :) ). There are dozens of paint and stain choices available for background colors. Paint for the stenciling is available in almost any color. Jessi designs and cuts reusable stencils, and she currently has over 200 designs, including many seasonal ones, available for the sign sizes listed above. She is unable to take custom stencil requests for this event, but with so many designs already on her website, she’s sure you’ll be able to find something you’ll want to make. Here is a link to Jessi’s website, where you can view all of the stencils she already has available. Browse at your convenience! Please note the website includes several designs that can be used to make a REVERSIBLE sign! Any signs made from single boards (12×12, 12×16, 10×24, 8×48) can be reversible, with a design stenciled on both the front and back. Signs that are made from 3 separate boards (11×11, 16×16, 16×20) are one-side only.
