Directions for Folding Menu Sign:
|| Step 1 ||
I painted the folding menu sign frame white paint with 3 coats (if you want white!).
|| Step 2 ||
Next, I painted the folding menu sign with chalkboard paint to get that true black color.
Directions For Fancy Chalkboard Wording:
|| Step 1 ||
First, I ordered the custom wording on Etsy here.
|| Step 2 ||
Then I enlarged the image (16x20) at FedEx and printed out the enlarge image.
|| Step 3 ||
Next, I scratched the back of print out with compressed graphite.
|| Step 4 ||
Then I taped the print out to the menu sign with painters tape.
|| Step 5 ||
I traced the letters with a pencil.
|| Step 6 ||
Then I removed the print out and tape.
|| Step 7 ||
Lastly, I traced & filled in markings with a chalk marker.
|| Step 8 ||
Style & enjoy!
Style & enjoy!
This entire project takes a couple of days only because the Etsy shop needs 24-48 hours to send you the custom design and get your approval before emailing the final downloadable image. It was much cheaper than you think! $10-$15 well worth it if you're like me and can't do fancy chalkboard lettering to save your life. Once I recieved the personalized download image, it took a day to complete.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Warmly, Steph
