Sign language

Today: pampering and frantic preparations for tomorrow's trip.

Evening has been spent making signs. This is how you do it...

Little gray cells. Come up with a witty idea that means something to you.

Plan. I had a miniature note paper that was cut into same dimensions as the bigger sign. Plan the layout and colours you're going to use.

Practice. I used a pencil to sketch out the words to make sure they would still look good in the intended size. At this point make sure someone proof reads the signs - after the next step it's too late and you've embarrased yourself in front of millions of people in over 50 countries.

Oulines. Draw the outlines of the letters in the corresponding colour...

...and colour in. Just like when you were a kid.

My hand hurts now and the bed is calling.
