It starts with this fun stencil from Funky Junk Old Sign Stencils.
I grabbed an old board I had and stenciled the LAUNDRY sign. Because I use so little paint when stenciling, it dries pretty much instantly. I lightly sanded the letters after the paint was dry.

I added two large hooks (from the craft store) for hanging laundry up.
Be sure to clear coat everything since laundry rooms tend to have a lot of moisture.

Use Large D rings on the back to hang the sign. I use D rings when a sign has hooks on it to keep it hanging evenly on the wall.
Great sign, Becky! And I love how you added the hooks!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, the hooks help so much when folding clothes or to hang up things that don't get dried.
