Make Your Own Neon Effect Sign 3M Neon String Light Message Kit BLUE

Product Information

It's a lot of fun to freehand write signs and phrases if you're artistic and have a little dexterity. Copper is a flexible and pliable material that is really simple to deal with, making it the perfect material for this DIY neon sign . Figure out where you will need to drill holes to make your words. The obvious ones, are at the beginning and end of every word or unconnected letter. To figure out where else to drill holes, play with your EL wire (or a piece of string), bending it over your word and seeing where it piles up too much and would be “cleaner” if you could get rid of a bit of the wire (or where it is unable to bend into the shape you need.) So the “obvious” ones in our “Love” Sign are the beginning of the “L”, end of the “e” and beginning of the “o” because it isn’t attached to any of the other letters. Tabitha drilled another hole to connect the “o” to the “v” because it made it easier to read than if there was a third piece of EL wire between the two letters. Mark the places you’ll drill with an “x”.

Move slowly from one end of the wires to the other, carefully using the glue gun to seal them together. Much like the first method for DIY LED neon signs, start by creating your design and determining the dimensions. Use the shaping wire to create the intended design. Complementing the kit, we provide step-by-step instructions tailored specifically for sign makers new to the world of neon signage. These easy-to-follow instructions will guide you through each stage of the assembly process, allowing you to gain confidence and expertise as you go. Before you know it, you'll have a professional-looking neon sign proudly displayed. By following a few simple steps and using basic materials, you designed a personal lighting fixture that you’ll enjoy for years to come. There is some work and patience involved, but it pays off, providing you with a beautiful and lasting testament to your creativity. Supplies for an EL Wire Neon SignNeon signs can spell out your name or a fun word (like OMG!). They can also be pictures, like a cat or a cheeseburger. Just keep in mind that if the neon sign you are going to make is a message, it is recommended that you use a cursive font because it will run in a circuit to make sure that you will not cut its connection. You may be planning to give your neon sign to a loved one for their birthday or as a gift to commemorate a special milestone.

The struggle of putting up your shop can be pretty exhausting mentally, physically, and especially financially. But, with the tutorial by Glowtime, you do not have to spend so much investing on your “open” and “close” store signage. Draw your design in pencil across a couple of sheets of paper. The idea is to draw your design as accurately as possible and to the exact size you want your sign to be. Ensure that you always consider the marking guides found on the flex light strip before cutting it out to avoid damaging the lights.
