DIY sign: Welcome home!

Looking for the perfect housewarming gift that’s both personal and practical? This easy DIY welcome sign with floral details is a thoughtful way to celebrate someone’s big move.

Handmade gifts leave a lasting impression, and this one adds instant charm to any doorstep. Whether you’re welcoming loved ones, colleagues or clients into their next chapter, this sign is a creative, customizable gift that says “home sweet home” in the most heartfelt way.

SUPPLIES:

  • Wooden round circle
  • Wooden “Welcome” cutout
  • Wooden flowers cutout
  • Flat-backed vase
  • Hot glue gun
  • Yarn or thread for hanging
  • Acrylic paint
  • Flowers (real or fake)
  • Floral Styrofoam (optional)
  • Scissors

*All supplies were purchased from Hobby Lobby.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Paint each of your pieces and let them completely dry.
  2. Using hot glue (I use Gorilla Glue for the best quality), attach all the wooden pieces to the backer in the way you want them arranged.
  3. Using hot glue or super glue, attach your flat-backed vase to the sign and let dry.
  4. Since I used fake flowers, I added some floral Styrofoam to the vase to help hold the flowers’ stems. I cut my stems down to the height I wanted and arranged them in the vase, being careful not to cover up the “welcome”.
  5. Add a hanger with some twine or rope to the back so the homeowners can easily hang this on their front door using a door hanger.


 *Optional: Add ribbons or bows for a more personalized touch.

*Tip: This project is so easy to customize for holidays or events. If you choose neutral paint colors, you can easily change out the flowers throughout the year.
