Interesting and very well done.  Is that all painted?  Thanks for showing.

I must say that you are a master at colorful pretty signs.

The colors really make it come to life. Maybe someday you can shoot a quick video of your paint setup?

I just use spray paint.  I first paint the pieces white as sort of a primer.  not actually primer, just cheapo white.  Once the pieces are cut out i tape them to a piece of card stock.  basically by color.  one sheet for white, one for blue and so on.  i take them to the garage and spray paint them with the colors they need to be.

Once dry, bring it all back in and reassemble it and glue to the backing with wood glue.

Great craftsmanship.  May I ask what do you do with these signs?  Do they sell are they for personal use?  I really is something new and different on here.

I dont do anything with them right now, just trying to figure them out for the most part.  Obviously they would be nice personalized so thats what I am working towards but still in the playing stages with that.  For now I have walls covered with loads of this stuff.  getting sort of out of hand but you know how it is, once you catch the bug you cant un catch it.
