Thanks so much for this video. I am working on a welcome sign at present for my son’s wedding. I so wanted to use Perspex and now I know exactly how to do it. Fantastic tutorial...straight to the point...no useless chit chat....absolutely the best!!!!

[@morganblarue]

This was SO HELPFUL. I must have watched this 6 times to make sure I did everything right. It worked! My sign looks great; thank you!

[@everythingwithfarahbaig5030]

What kind of pen did she use?

[@thaconnextion111]

Thank you! Just finished up on our sign and it’s amazing!

[@sebrenacn5]

Awesome idea will be making this for my wedding next year thanks for sharing,was looking at doing it but with vinyl but your idea is amazingly.

[@TheMagnificentSarah]

This has saved me £40 I was going to have to spend on a custom bought one 🥰 thank you! It has also saved me £200 because while doing this I saw canva has wedding invitation templates too and decided to do digital invitations ❤

[@kikisklaws]

As I’m planning to craft the majority of my wedding this BY FAR was the most informative and useful tutorial I’ve seen! I can’t wait to make a welcome sign and so much more!

[@astrea79]

This is the best acrylic sign tutorial I've seen on KZbin. Thank you so much! Another great place to find acrylic frames is Goodwill or other thrift shops or even a yard sale/swap meet. Or sometimes I even see people discarding them at apartment dumpsters on the end of the month.

[@sasheikan.powell3064]

Wow this is so nice and elegant.Love how easy it was to follow your steps.

[@linnyya]

Amazing! Thank you for this extremely in-depth and detailed tutorial. I loved how you linked everything you used. This will be so useful for DIYing my wedding sign - so much more preferable to paying goodness knows what to some random Etsy person. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

[@ummawlaad686]

Thank you sooo much for the detailed steps on making this! You’re awesome 🤗💕

[@daisyfryberger7746]

Awesome! I love this! So cool. No cricut needed! 🙌

[@janematthew7109]

I just want to cry. This is so beautiful. I am 2 weeks away from my wedding and no welcome sign. Super expensive everything is and i am exhausted. This is so cool. I'll do this ♥️♥️♥️

[@karatran4046]

Just wanted to say thank you so very much! Every tutorial on KZbin a cricut (which most people don’t have!) was needed or it was free hand. This was a life and $$ saver! Thank you so very much!!!!!

[@atHomewithMrsB]

Glad it was helpful! I wanted to get the circuit look but with a hand drawn touch! Best of both worlds here :)

[@bulgarianlady1]

Amazing step by step! Everything worked out amazingly for someone very new to this! Thanks a lot!

[@laurenciaaduadjei288]

This is perfect thank you for being so detailed!

[@27blacka]

I don’t usually comment on video but thank you so much for doing this video without a cricut… so grateful for this cheap and inexpensive way to make these signs. Thank youuuuu

[@angelbarnes3892]

This is so cool. I was thinking about doing something like this to ask my bridesmaids to be in the wedding. This was super helpful 😊

Love this. You are a awesome. Been looking for this. Wanting to do this for my son's wedding

[@katj0418]

This is a fantastic tutorial!! Thank you so much for this!

[@chocomallows2559]

Cool! Just an idea: mirror print so you're writing on the back side and the print gets "sealed" by the background color.

[@makiwifi89]

Hello! How to mirror print?

[@chocomallows2559]

@@makiwifi89 You can do it in Canva 😃

[@kaylacameron1978]

I would recommend this if you intend to keep it. A lot of other brides though would probably prefer the method she shows in the video because if you sell this to another bride, they can use the acetone to erase and redo their own sign

[@aliokoh5577]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I had never used Canva or Rasterbator before and your instructions made it so simple. I created the most beautiful 24 x 36 acrylic seating chart for my best friend's wedding. You're awesome!

[@shireen5012]

hey, rasterbator for me comes up with errors constantly do you know how I can print it without using rasterbator- all the other steps are done

[@emmamomma9271]

This video solved so many of my issues, thank you!

Girl! I created the board yesterday! it was so much fun, I did struggle to find the right pen lol but the outcome was amazing! Thank you for the helpful tutorial.

[@atHomewithMrsB]

Yay! Thank you!

[@noreenm9492]

This looks great. Could i wash the paint off and re use the board?

Omgosh THANK YOU!!!

[@ciaraxo13]

Thank you!! I just got engaged and I can’t wait to try this diy 🤍

[@theblackmimosa888]

Omg & you didn’t even use a Cricut!! This is sooo creative 😍

[@amberkhan3692]

Thank you so much

[@zsooofii19]

Hey! Beautiful piece! I have a question tho. Do you use any sort of seal on the paint or the marker so that it's wratherproof and doesn't chip off?

[@user-xx4se9fh5m]

this is amazing. I am working on a sign right now and i wanted to get a flat gold back so i wondered if i could use gold spray paint to avoid any streaks, any experience with this??

[@rahmaselmi22]

Hi How are you!! First Thank you for this very well done and explained video!! This is the third time I try to make a welcome sign myself and fail again... My most important problem is that when I trace the letters with my paint pen, the first coat is super light obviously, but when I try to go back and do a second coat for my writing to be more dark and clear, I just can't do it!! It's like when I rewrite with the same paint pen, it erases the coat that is under... Should I leave it to dry a lot between 2 coats ?? Because on the pen it says fast dry and when I touch, I really feel it's dry but then I repaint with an other coat and it doesn't work... PLZ HELP, I need to do it for in two days !!!

[@prittygritty6326]

For the frame you ordered 76x55 but the template on canva was larger, is this correct? I want to make sure it’s the right size :) thank you x

[@agumelen]

I’m hand-writing and painting a sign for my son’s upcoming wedding. You have given me some great ideas. One little tip, if you will: be careful while using some strippers on the the acrylic. Some strippers may have an undesired effect on the acrylic.

[@abyadkheri7466]

Thank you for your video, I have a question u purchase the glass 75 x 55 and the canvas u se the size by 91 x 66 ? how is this possible?

[@wollywotsit]

Fantastic video, where does one get the acrylic paint from, I can only find tiny tubs of it, is it something you can get on the English high street?

[@KK-eo1ru]

Fab video! What finish cut did you get the sheet? - Saw or polished? & What size is the “Welcome” font?

[@arlietv6883]

Hello, do you know how to get rid of the acetone smudge marks on the acrylic when using acetone to correct mistakes?

[@mahinrithe5817]

Do you use any kind of sealant spray for the side with the lettering?

[@shardaew4448]

You genius !

[@sarahmaloney1987]

This is an amazing tutorial! Do you have any tips for the painting. I am finding even after three coats, when held up, it is very transparent and you can see every brush stroke 😱 It looks good when I’m painting laid flat on the table, but held up looks terrible 😞

[@kimharper4390]

What font are you using on canva? Can’t find it

[@ungkanachiangmai6457]

Your video is really helpful. Thank you so much. Anyway where can I find the pen like this ?

[@jaloneynorwood4306]

Awesome thank you for sharing I’m also a new subscriber 🤗

[@DelaneraVictoriaNoak-]

it really reallyyyy helpppfulll thankyou so muchhh omg

[@xShaalinii]

Hello, i have a question. Do you use an oil based marker and a waterbased marker? Thankyou!

[@Sravankumar-qi5dc]

Thank you very much

[@atHomewithMrsB]

You are welcome

[@k.gabrieladuartefuentes6031]

Quick question: what kind of paint did you use for the acrylic sheet? And would it come off or is it permanent? I’m working on a friend’s wedding. LOVE ALL YOUR IDEAS!! ❤️💋🙏

[@ThePeachBasket3000]

Where did you get the easel from x

[@miaevans7943]

It’s awesome.. can you list down what is the name of pens and color you use?

[@kendraadams6523]

Thank you for the tutorial! Do you have to use mod podge to seal if you paint the back?

[@mrsbyron7078]

I am wondering the same

[@samantharouillard8405]

Could you remove the paint and reuse the sign afterwards?

[@BienRueda]

Currently doing it,ughh how do you deal with the patches i did 2 coats already

[@orlaodoherty3038]

Love this video thank you!! Can I ask, what brand and color paint did you use on the back please? X

[@marytabner1380]

Thanks so much for this was exactly what I’m looking for. However, just followed each step which went well and then printed off . Not sure what I’ve done wrong but it’s not matching up and not in line on some letters. Any suggestions? Thanks

[@marytabner1380]

@@atHomewithMrsB thank you I’ll give it a go over the weekend. X

[@khaucellyarajagopal7211]

What is the size of frame used? 76x55 or 91x61

[@joslynmarqs2651]

Can we reuse the acrylic glass after? Is there a way to remove the paint safely

[@jerrickarencher9428]

I can't see that frame on ikea. Is there another place I can find it

[@ginamiller2241]

What can I use to write permanently on plexiglass?

[@ExoKaila88]

hello, may I know what font on canva did you use?

[@blancaalcazar5168]

Hi where can I order the acrylic frame in that size I am in the US

[@fariellen1969]

Hi is there any way after writing on it can I wipe it off

[@isabellamurphy114]

loved the vid! im just having trouble with scaling the outcome with my board. the board is 24x24 and i enter that into canva, but after many trys it continues to print to large and doesn’t align with the board i am going to be writing it on. any advice?

[@morganblarue]

I had the same issue when I did a smaller sign. I just changed the paper height until my poster size on the right beneath the image matched what my acrylic sign size was (I went in 0.1 in increments!). Good luck.

[@baghyashree9132]

Is printing done normal paper or should we use tracing sheet

[@stephjohnson9115]

Did you get it polished and buffed?

[@nickytam4148]

hey! amazing video!!! i can't wait to do this. Where do you get that thing to put the sign on? :)
