So while trying to find something to hang on that empty little porch wall, I kept seeing these cute cut words. I really wanted to give them a try. My first thought was “yum” for the kitchen, but then I had a better idea courtesy of my sister. She wanted to stage a flip house with a “welcome home” sign… a bit of an obvious subliminal message ? And on I went.
When I did a practice run with “yum”, I grabbed a piece of plywood from my scrap pile. Then, when I did the welcome home sign, I used a 2’ x 4’ piece of ¼” thick MDF. The mdf is so much easier to cut, but it can break. You may wish to step up to ½” thick to make your word sturdier, especially if you have thin pieces in the word.
All of the following are laid out for 2×2 or 2×4 sheets.
Viola!
Ready to give it a shot? If you’re like me, after you’re done you’ll be looking for more fun things to cut with your jigsaw 😉 Find a word or phrase below that strikes your fancy and GO! Simply right click on the image of the word to download the pdf template.
You can make the phrases below out of one sheet of 2′ x 4′ material using these layouts:

Love the welcome home sign! These are awesome.
Thanks Jamie!
Hello! This template is wonderful and truly a godsend for the project I am doing. However,
the template I want to use is just a tad too big for the piece of wood I am going to use it for. Is there anyway you could post a reduced size of the "Home" template? I would be forever grateful! Thanks!
Hi Hailey, I'm so happy to help you! How are you opening the template? If it's in Excel, you can just drag it to make it smaller. Let me know if you need further help!
I would love to have the word
"give" in all lowercase letters
for a give thanks porch sign.
Thank you!
Hi Laura,
I just updated the post with both give and thanks. Hope that helps and have fun with your project!
Hello! For the longest time I had been looking for the perfect calligraphy prints for some diy home decor projects and fell in love when I came across your designs...Any way you could create a “friends” and “family” template?
Hi Emily, I just updated the post with the new words. Hope they work ok, and good luck!
Hi, can you please add the word darling :)
