I wanted a sign I could have up year round that wouldn't get me into trouble with the SO.
As a mod my sign is not in the running but what the heck?
The sign is very simple. I drew up a design and enlarged it for a template.
The acrylic rods were heated using a heat gun and tacked in place along the way while they cooled.
I had some scrap fabric that I placed inside the frame. After the bat and lettering were done the pieces we hot glued on to the outside glass of a picture frame.
The black light is not mounted on the frame (I'm holding it for the picture). I wasn't sure if I needed to include the cost of the blacklight or not.
Now I just need a place to hang it where the kids won't break the glass.
COST
Frame: $25
Acrylic rods: 9 rods @ $0.50 = $4.50
Scrap black fabric: $1
Blacklight: $12.99
Total: $43.49
