Good morning my crafty friends! First off I would like to let you know that I will be taking a couple weeks off from blogging. We are going to go visit my daughter and family for a couple days, then we are going to have a Garage Sale. Fun Fun! I have been putting it off for a long time, but finally talked the hubby into helping me. So I will be pretty busy getting ready for the sale. But today I want to share with you my Toilet Paper Stand sign holder.

First, let me explain. Lately, we have been having a lot of solicitors ringing our doorbell after we have already gone to bed (We work early hours so we go to bed while it’s still light). By the time the hubby gets dressed and to the door, they’ve already left. We’ve had several come back twice and leave their cards saying sorry they missed us. You would think if we didn’t contact you maybe we aren’t interested in what you’re selling.

Anyway, I have a hard time going to sleep then when I get woke up and even harder time going back to sleep. So I decided to make a NO Soliciting sign from a piece of wood that I already had cut.

Well it turned out a little too big for our door, with the glass windows and glass side panels there wasn’t a good place to hang it. Then I thought of the metal toilet paper stand that we didn’t use anymore, just maybe that was the solutions for my sign.

Diy Toilet Paper Stand Sign Holder – No Soliciting

Let’s start with the sign. First I gave my wood two coats of white chalk paint.

While that was drying I taped two pieces of paper together the size of my wood. Then I wrote out NO Soliciting on the paper (this made it easier if I needed to erase before adding to the wood).

Next, I used my carbon paper to transfer the words to my sign.

Then I went over the letters with black acrylic paint.

Once dry I used Helmsman Spar Urethane to seal and protect my sign.

Now all I need to do is place the toilet paper stand sign holder on the porch and set the No Soliciting sign in place. Now I have a No Soliciting sign that that can’t be missed.

    That is such a great idea Linda. I too get them and they are very annoying since they come back again and again. I hope that pay heed to the sign and let you get your sleep. Enjoy your time visiting your daughter.

      Thank you Mary! So far so good, no one else has stopped by. Had a good time visiting my daughter and family. I even took my 15 year old granddaughter out and let her drive my SUV, she needs to be practicing as much as she can and her mom won’t let her drive her vehicle. She really enjoyed that! 🙂

    Ugh!!! I hate it when that happens. Those people are the worst. Hopefully your sign keeps them away, but you never know some people just don’t get the point.

      So far the sign seems to be working. But it’s also been raining for over a week now, so it could just be the rain keeping them away. LOL

    Oops that was rude. I forgot to say that I really hope you enjoy your trip and that your garage sale is a huge success too. Have fun

      LOL. Thank you, We did enjoy our visit. Did pretty good the first day on the sale because it didn’t rain to much, but the second day was a different story. Ended up closing at 11am because the rain wasn’t letting up and no one was coming by.

    Hi Linda,
    I also have a hard time getting back to sleep once interrupted. I sure should make one of this. I hope this would work! Thank you for sharing, it reminded me to do something I should’ve done before. 😉
    Hope you had a great time!
    Cheers,
    Jessica
