Information

      Sometimes a goblin’s gotta decorate, especially when your door feels more like a void than a vibe. I made this engraved wood plaque because my door was giving a “blank stare” when I needed it to say “mystical threshold, enter if you dare (and maybe bring snacks).” The design features the Triple Moon symbol with a central pentacle and sunburst detailing, paired with the phrase “Live by the Sun, Love by the Moon.” It’s a little celestial, a little witchy, and 100% the enchantment boost my entryway needed.
    

Instruction

1

Step1: Design Prep

Designed and then vectorized in Adobe Illustrator. (already done for you)

2

Step2: Wood Prep and Laser Work

I used a ready-made sign, but any wood will work if you are willing to design the cut around the vectorization. These score very prettily so I didn't mask the wood, just used air assist.

Step3: After Care

Optional: Lightly spray with Polycrylic or other protective spray. You could even fill in the linework with paint or markers.
