Howdy y’all!
Is my Oklahoma and Texas showing?
I get tired of using the same opening and closing remarks in emails, but my go-to’s are “howdy” for an opening and “kind regards” for a closing. Howdy is one of those southern colloquialisms that I’ve always embraced – there’s just something playful and welcoming about it. Howdy immediately brings to mind thoughts of sweet tea and warm embraces. Maybe I’m thinking about it a little too much, but that welcoming feeling is what I was going for with these DIY door hangers:
From the warm wood to the playful stripes these DIY door hangers are the perfect greeting for your front door! They’are simple to cut out, and since they are short/straight cuts they are good practice for using a scroll saw!

Instructions
I enlarged a tag I found in the Cricut Design Studio, and cut it with my Cricut so I could easily trace it on my 1/4 inch plywood for these wooden door hangers.
After the tags were traced, I cut them out using my Ryobi scroll saw. Once they are cut, sand the edges and stain the wood. Last, apply a fun saying cut from outdoor vinyl.

Also: are you as obsessed with my royal blue front door as I am!? I did it a few months ago using “Morning Glory” from the DecoArt Americana Decor Outdoor Living line of paint. They now have a special line of paint just for front doors! Check out their new “Curb Appeal” line.

Have you ever had a problem with warping jn any of your door hangers? I have this issue issue have gone to a thicker wood but would like to use what I started with rather than what I am forced to use now.
