To begin with, you should drill two holes in your plywood panel so that you can easily hang it up later. If this doesn't suit you, you can also attach picture frame hangers to the back to create the hanging solution of your choice.
Priming the boardUse the VBS handicraft paintto prime the plywood panel. Apply the paint evenly and allow it to dry thoroughly. A clean and even primer coat ensures a high-quality end result.
transferring the letteringPrint out our free template and transfer the desired lettering to the plywood panel using graphite paper. Alternatively, you can also design and transfer your own lettering. Make sure you leave enough space for the cork coasters.
Tracing the letteringUse the "Easy Brush" brush and the handicraft paint to trace the lettering you have drawn. Make sure the strokes are clean and even.
Preparing the branding paintEquip the branding pen with a thin tip and place it on the stand. Connect it to the socket so that it can heat up. The branding iron is the central tool for the fine wooden burning on your memo board.
Branding the cork coasterCut out the banner from the template and place it on a cork coaster. Outline it with the sublimate pen and slowly trace the lines with the heated branding pen. Repeat this process for each of the days of the week.
Attaching the cork coastersUse VBS handicraft glueto attach the cork coasters to the plywood board and allow everything to dry thoroughly. The right adhesive will ensure that everything is stable and will last a long time.
Attaching the hanging ropeCut a piece of cotton rope of any length. Thread the ends of the rope through the drilled holes and tie them with a knot. This allows you to hang your memo board securely and stably.
