Learn how to make unique DIY Christmas signs for your holiday home! These projects are perfect for a variety of decorating styles and use a variety of materials.
There are two things I have an obsession with when it comes to Christmas decorating. Two of my favorite categories of crafts to make: wreaths and Christmas signs.
Why you ask? Because I have tons of wall space in my home so there’s always somewhere to hang something, especially when it comes to the holidays. I love Christmas wall decor!
Another reason is because the supplies are ready accessible. Whether it be Michaels, the Dollar Tree, or Walmart, you can always find a simple wood surface or plaque as well as a wreath form.
If we’re talking about signs in particular, you just need a little bit of paint and maybe some scrapbook paper and Mod Podge. Or even just vinyl.
What I’m saying is that you don’t need much to make a Christmas sign! Sure you can make them more complicated, but I’m not going tell you how easy they are to make. I’m going to show you.
Below are 40+ signs you can make for the holidays, and I know that no matter your style – there’s something for you on this list you’ll have to try. There are a lot of projects on here ranging from farmhouse to rustic to modern and then just plain colorful!
If you’re into making Christmas signs too, I hope you’ll give one of these projects a try. Then I need you to let me know that you did in the comments. I’d also just love to hear which sign is your favorite.
Happy holidays and happy crafting!
