This personalized door hanger makes a terrific DIY painting project for kids! Type any name to generate a two-layer cut file. Hanging holes and inset score lines added automatically!

We recommend 1/4 inch thick Plywood or MDF for this project.

## About this project

We collaborated with [Gwynn Jones](https://www.facebook.com/createwithgwynn) to create this template based on a hit project at her shop Olive and Oak.

Gwynn sells these personalized signs as DIY kits and uses the project for birthday parties and kids’ workshops.

The template lets you type any name to generate a door hanger cut file.

It will automatically:

-   **Auto-size everything** so that the final project is the desired width
    
-   **Create a backer** — an offset of the name with slightly rounded corners
    
-   Add an **inset scored reference line** to help align the letters when gluing
    
-   Add **hanging holes** of the desired size to the backer
    
-   **Generate the full cut file** (backer and letters) for the project
    

In addition to the name, you can customize the font and sizing, but we worked with Gwynn to dial in the defaults exactly how she likes for this project.
