subject: Send Guests A Sign That This Is The Fun Party Location [print this page] Planning a party? If so, there should be ways for guests unfamiliar with the party location to recognize that the party is in the area. Party signs are not simply meant to offer information, but also to be decorative and downright beautiful. Yard Sign Themes. The host can choose from many yard sign themes, depending of course on the party type. Christmas parties should include a fun image such as a snowman or greeting to welcome party guests.
For example, (insert name or names) wish all a Merry Christmas. Make the sign from wooden stakes and plywood, draw the image on the surface on the sign, then hammer small nails into the sign to affix it to the stake. In connect the dots fashion use colored lights to create the desired form. Affix the lights to the nails with plastic ties, wrapping the finished product securely. Use a jigsaw to shape the wood to form the shape of the image e.g. snowman. Paint the sign so it will shine just as brightly in the day time as when it is fully illuminated during the evening hours. After the paint has dried apply a coat of sealant. Hammer the stakes into the back of the sign (which can be done before the drawing and painting process begins as well). Then hammer the top of the sign into the ground.

Stencils make another fun addition at any party. Stencils come in a large variety of theme to fit any party or holiday theme. Stencils are fast alternatives to painting letters and images by hand. Simple apply the stencil over the surface and spray paint.
Benefits: The benefits of creating one's own personal yard sign can't be counted. First, saving money is always a priority, especially around the holiday season or throwing a birthday party. Saving money anywhere for the overall cost of the holiday or a one-day celebration, such as a birthday party, should be considered. Creating a sign may not only save money but is a fun project the entire family can participate in.
In the case of large families, why not make a sign that bears a photo of the entire family wearing Halloween or Christmas outfits? This can be done by drawing and painting the family members in cartoon form. There is nothing wrong creating fun, simple sign as well.
