Let me remind you about myself… My name is Melissa and I can be found at That’s Just Crafty!
I’m going to show you how to make a “BOO” Halloween Door Sign!
It’s very simple to make all you need is:
Step One
Center the B and O templates onto the center of the black felt. Cut around the letter. I used my rotary cutter in some spots. Make sure you save the O to use on twice on two black felt squares.
Step Two
For the insides of the B, I did not cut out while the big letter was on the felt. I took the negative space of the B and used the insides of the paper template that I cut out. For the O’s, I did cut the center with the rest of the letter…they are bigger and easier to cut.
Step Three
Next you will want to decide the order of your fabrics. Cut enough of the fabric to go behind the cutout of your letter. And go pin happy, pinning the fabric to the back side of the felt letter.
Step Four
You will then need to sew around the inside edge of each of the letters to secure the fabric in place. If you don’t have a sewing machine, a hot glue gun may also work. You will also want to place your center pieces of the B and O’s onto the fabric, secure with pins, and sew in place (sorry, no picture of that).
Step Five
And finally you will want to decide on the spacing between your letters and cut the ribbon out. You will also need to decide on the length you want the ribbon on the top of the final sign. Pin all ribbon in place to the back side, connecting the black felt letters together. Also pin the top ribbon in place. You will sew the ribbon into place.
And there you have it…a BOO Halloween Door sign!

Great! I need to buy a sewing machine so I can get craftier. I would probably use hot glue for all the things you did with the sewing machine…lol 🙂 Thanks!

I say: That’s what glue guns are for. For those of us without a sewing machine.
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell says
I’d have to sew by hand but I could probably still do it, right?
