I gave the sign a little wear and tear by dry-brushing some black paint onto the edges. It is so small I don’t know if anyone could actually see it at the wedding with the mood lighting, but I love this little detail!įor the Diagon Alley sign, I searched for a board that was close in shape to the sign from the movies and painted it white. I did have enough gold vinyl to cut a golden snitch and an arrow to add to the sign.Īt the last minute, I used my gold gel pen to add “Nimbus 2000” to the end of the broomstick. It has a sheen to it and the color looks a little different depending on where you are standing. This would have been a good sign for my Cricut Explore, but I was out of gold vinyl so I had to try something else! You can see this method used on my DIY Watermelon Sign – it works really well and is inexpensive! Since there were so many small parts to this font, I decided to use a gold gel pen rather than acrylic paint to give me more control. I really loved the look of the Dervish and Banges logo, but decided Quality Quidditch Supplies would fit better on this sign – plus, it is where Harry saw his first broomstick, the Nimbus 2000!Īfter painting over the sign with brown acrylic paint, I used the pencil transfer method to add the text.
Two came to mind from the Harry Potter world, Quality Quidditch Supplies and Dervish and Banges. This sign is definitely one of my favorites! I found the “Witch Parking” Halloween sign at Michaels Craft Store and knew a sign with a broom attached to it would be perfect for a quidditch store.

We traveled for this wedding, so the sign also needed to travel and be assembled quickly on site. In this post I’ll show you how I made the next five signs and also how we mounted the signs on an 8-foot wooden pole. Their reception venue was a large library with insanely tall ceilings, so this 8-foot tall directional sign fit right in! I was asked to help create some of the decorations and was really excited to work on this directional sign. As I mentioned in the first part, I created this directional sign for two good friends who married a couple months ago with an incredible Harry Potter-themed wedding. Hello Crafty Friends!
