Instructions
Cut the board to fit your space. Decide what size your house number sign needs to be and cut it. Mine is 4 inches wide by 28 inches long. Each painted section is 4x7 inches.
Attach the picture hanger to the back of the board according to the kit instructions.
Paint the background of the sign. Use painter’s tape to mark each section, then paint. Let the paint dry and re-tape as needed until the whole sign is painted. Make sure you cover the sides too. Allow the sign to dry overnight.
Attach the house numbers. Mark where the numbers will go on the sign. (Mine came with a template.) Drill holes into the boards and attach the numbers with screws.
Hang the house numbers sign. Attach a screw to the side of the house and hang the sign. Adjust it as needed to make sure it’s level.
