Make these small eye catching wood no soliciting signs that easily hang on windows or doors. They’re small but noticeable and effective. All that’s needed is small wood slats you can buy ready made or cut yourself, our free printables below and some metal screw eye rings (like we used for our DIY Necklace) and suction cups. If you have a metal door you can glue magnets on the back! Paint them any color. They make great housewarming gifts!

Instructions
I found a pair of 12″ x 1.5″ slats at the local craft store.
Cut out your graphic of choice staying just inside the light grey lines.
Measure the paper on your slat.
Cut off the excess.
Sand the end.
Hand or spray paint your wood.
For inserting eyelets measure approximately 1″ on each end and mark.
Drilling a tiny hole is optional but helps the insertion of the metal screw eyes.
Coat your board with Mod Podge.
Apply your graphic.
Attach the metal screw eye rings.
IMPORTANT: You must apply some sort of spray fixative such as clear spray paint to keep the ink letters from smearing when you use Mod Podge.
After the clear spray dries, apply a coat of Mod Podge.
If you will be hanging the sign on a metal door you can glue on strong magnets. Command strips will also hold it in place on any type of door.
Attach your tiny suction cups to hang your sign facing outward on windows.
This is a magnetic sign on our metal front door.
