One of the projects I've been working on is a sign for my booth. I knew that I didn't want a simple vinyl banner and when I came across this old oval wooden frame at the Christie Antique Fair, I knew it would work perfectly for my sign.
A piece of MDF was cut to fit inside the frame and both were given a couple of coats of charcoal grey paint.
I ordered a vinyl decal to adhere to my sign from slaps on Etsy which is designed to work either indoors or even on a vehicle.
After some careful measuring and positioning, I was ready to adhere it.
After peeling off the backing, I smoothed everything down with the squeegie and could then peel back the clear masking on top to reveal the decal.
The oval was ready to place into the frame and secure it from behind. I'm pleased with how it turned out and think it's a lovely alternative to a vinyl banner. I'll likely hang it with wire and ribbon inside my booth. Stay tuned for part 2 of craft booth prep!
