DIY Must Have: Calligraphy Sign

Bella Breakdown

A calligraphy sign is a total necessity for an adorably festive bash! This one is perfect for above the dessert table or cocktail bar.

All you need to make a Pinterest perfect calligraphy sign of your own is:

Foam Core Board
Printout Stencil
Pencil
Scissors
Tape Exacto Knife
Mod Podge
Glitter
Paint Brush

Start by cutting off the edges of your stencil pages and matching the edges together, then taping in place. Then carefully cut the stencil out and trace onto the foam core board by outlining it. Don’t worry, you won’t be able to see the outline when you’re done.

Next, cut out your sign by using an exact knife and following your stencil outline on the foam core board. You can use a nail file to smooth the cut edges of the foam core. It’s going to look pretty smashing already, but amp it up with glitter!

Pour some mod podge into a bowl and generously add glitter and mix. Glitter glue anyone? Paint the mod podge / glitter mixture onto the sign and let dry overnight. Wow! By morning you’ll have a gorgeous, glittery matte calligraphy sign totally instagram worthy ; )
