A Tribute To Dumb Crafters

Material:
Wood Stake (I used a stake left over from an election sign post)
Scrap boards
Black Paint
Screws
Outdoor Varnish (optional)

How to:

These sign posts are very easy to make and can be used for all kinds of holidays.  This one is for Halloween.  Begin by painting with black paint, your signs (I used a wood burning tool first to engrave the wood, but it is not necessary).  Refer to photo for sayings... others are Boo Boulevard, Witch Way and Have a Spooktacular Halloween. 

The older and more ugly your boards are, the better.  If you want to preserve this project for several years, you should apply a coat of outdoor varnish to all wood surfaces when your finished painting.  I didn't do this because my boards were fairly new and I'd like them to age a little first.  I will apply varnish, once the boards have aged a little more.

Once your paint is dry, attach the boards to the stake with screws (be sure to use at least 2 screws per board or your boards will turn).  That's it.
