INSTRUCTIONS FOR HALLOWEEN SIGN
*UPDATE* to Instructions... I went back and did some heavier distressing to the edges of these shelf sitters and it made them super cuter!!
Especially the Halloween one- made it more "spooky"...
HERE IS THE BEFORE AND AFTER:
1. Paint the sides of your board (and the back if you would like, there is no need to paint the front since the paper goes there)
I forgot this step and had to do it AFTER I modge podged my paper on! Not fun, had to be careful not to get it on my cute, cute paper!!!! ;)
2. Distress the edges of your orange strip so it is ready to go when you modge podge!
I use an ink pad found in the scrapbooking section of your local craft store!

I DO NOT GO OVER THE TOP OF THE PAPER WITH MODGE PODGE!

INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: THE PLEXI GLASS HAS A PROTECTIVE FILM ON BOTH SIDES.
MAKE SURE TO REMOVE BOTH FILMS SO YOU HAVE A VERY CLEAR SHEET OF PLEXI GLASS!
1. APPLY VINYL LETTERING TO YOUR PLEXI GLASS
The Vinyl will be cut in REVERSE so you will need to apply it to the back side of your plexi glass!!
This makes for cleaning and wiping off your dry erase markings easier.
2. TRIM PAPER to fit your 9"x11" plexi glass exactly.
you dont want to try and trim AFTER modge podging!
3. APPLY MODGE PODGE to the back side as well, going OVER the vinyl and entire
piece of plexi glass completely with modge podge.
Make sure you put the side of paper you want to see
face down!!!
Basically,
when you flip your plexi glass over, you will be able to see the correct side of the paper, as well as
read the vinyl correctly! Just like pictured above!
Dont worry about seeing the glue at first. Once dried, the modge podge is clear!
I use a matte finish modge podge so it wont look glossy thru the plexi glass.
4. RUN RIBBON BY CONNECTING YOUR 3 PIECES
of plexi glass together. I will predrill your holes for you, so attaching ribbon will be easy!
Now you are ready to be ORGANIZED for the week!!!
