Hi all! Recently I have been working on projects to use around the house, like I mentioned in the post “How to make super easy Diy yard art? So, today I will be sharing this Diy Humorous Wood Sign that I now have hanging on my she-shed. I figured we could always use some humorous wood signs. Just a little warning of the type of humor you may find around here. LOL.

Diy Humorous Wood Sign
For this project I used two cedar fence pickets that had aged some over time, then I cut the tops off.
To make the wording for my wood sign I taped sheets of typing paper together and marked off the size of the wood. Next, I wrote in the wording by hand centering it the best I could. Then instead of using more paper for the next phrase I just flipped it over and wrote in the rest of the wording that would be hand-painted on the other piece of wood.
The paper was positioned in place with graphite paper underneath so I could trace over the words, transferring them to the wood.
It was still pretty light so I decided to use chalk and go over the letters to make them easier to see when painting.
Starting from one end to the other I hand-painted each letter on one Diy humorous wood sign to the next. When they were both done, I went back over each letter again.
Once dry I sprayed both piece of wood with Polyurethane to seal and protect the wood signs since they would be out in the weather.
To hang my humorous wood sign, I positioned the bottom one first and used wood screws on each end. Then I place the other sign above and screwed it down with wood screws as well. And that’s it for this Diy humorous wood sign.

Now that’s my kinda sign, Linda 😀 And I have to ask. How do you manage to have such pretty knees? Mine are all wrinkly and I’m not even retired yet.
Thanks Michelle! When I seen the quote I had to make it. LOL, guess since I am sitting it stretched out the wrinkles. Hehe!
