Noted scrolsaw artist and designer Dirk Boelman made these signs for us to fit neatly under an standard sized mailbox. Once you complete your signs, just hang the appropriate sign during that holiday and then safely store away until next year. We first show you how to make the mailbox stand, then we show you how to make the 4th of July sign. Make the remaining signs in the same way using the exploded view diagrams provided in the plans. Each design shows the materials required to complete a 2 sided sign.
