Welcome Sign

So, we bought a poster from Vistaprint (18x24 size) for like $3 on sale. It was just a standard welcome sign! Then I bought a frame from Michaels $40 but 1/2 off for $20 with a coupon from the app.

I decided I later wanted a more "acrylic" look for it so I used a white paint pen and traced the sign onto the glass. I'm in love! It feels more original, and more the style of our wedding than just a framed poster. We also used this method for smaller signs and seating charts.

I just laid the poster flat on the table, put the glass from the frame over top and used the paint pen to trace onto the glass. It was so so so simple.

I made a poster and printed it at OfficeMax and my venue had an easel that we set it on. I had the poster put on "foam-core" mounting so it would be sturdy and stand up on it's own. It really wasn't very expensive at all. good Luck!

Hey Abby!! You could definitely display a poster in a clear frame or even attach it to a piece of cardboard or hard surface and set it up! I saw that Staples has corrugated sheets which look like they may be solid enough to stand up on something like an easel!

You can easily display it on an easel or frame it, always feel free to ask your bridesmaids for their opinion, this has helped me out immensely!!

This looks amazing!!!! Great job!

You can probably find a chalkboard really cheap and make your own! We're renting a chalkboard from a rental company and making our own... $10!

Weird question but is this the glass that came with the frame? I assume it's held on the frame with the tabs? From the picture it doesn't look like you can see the tabs but just wanted to ask. I want this look too but can't bring myself to pay $100+ on Etsy when i know it would be pretty simple to make.

This is great! I'll do this too. I didn't know you could get a large poster board for so little!
