Today's DIY craft was inspired by a really cute sign I saw at Hobby Lobby last week. Alas, it was $25 so I didn't buy it. Instead, I made it myself when I got home! I resized it so that it would fit on an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper. I used photo paper but card stock, or even plain printer paper would work too.
My daughter has a few friends that seem to do nothing but argue when they all play together. If there are two of them, all is right with the world, but when there are three? One gets left out and gets her feelings hurt. The fighting begins and eventually ends with me sending them all home and/or busting out a bottle of wine. I thought this sign, strategically placed at the entrance of the room, might be a gentle reminder to play nice, dammit!
I have .pdf and Word versions so download whichever you like best. The margins should allow you to put a mat around it and frame it if you so desire. I'd love to have mine printed on canvas but until a good sale comes along, this will work just fine.
Note if you choose the Word version - I have a Mac so I used Pages. Some of the fonts or graphics may not be the same in Word so you may have to fiddle with it a bit to get it to look just right.
