There are few decorations as welcoming as a DIY gather sign! This not only creates a welcoming environment, but it also shows that you put thought and effort into welcoming people to your home or your living area. Create this in time for fall as people come and go from your house for the Thanksgiving season.
DIY Gather Sign
I was walking down the aisles of a decor store one day to see quite a few cute “gather signs.” And as I started to get excited…I saw the price! I knew that I could easily create a gather sign with wood and give it my own crafty spin. Fortunately, DIY gather signs are much less expensive.
Once you grab the gather sign from the list below, the rest is simple! We used paper napkins from the dollar store, as well as ribbon from there as well. A lot of dollar stores have cute holiday ribbons if you grab them quickly enough. If not, most DIY stores have some lovely ribbon as well that you can save for future seasonal crafts.
