How did I make these Day of the Week Closet Dividers?

Here is what the picture looked like before. They were made by Assorted Novelty Spring Wall Sign by Ashland® and I found them in the clearance section at Michaels.

I repurposed these items to create clothing signs that help me stay organized. They are cute the way they are, but I wanted to make them more useful. Follow along and check out the easy steps.

Step 1: Using a tape measure (affiliate), measure the inside of the predesigned square labels (affiliate). These measured 2 ¼ x 3 inches and were cut into seven rectangular black and white vinyl sheet shapes.

Step 2: Remove the back of the vinyl sheets and adhere them to each of the insides to cover the previously printed "Berries" sign. This step will cover the center completely to create a brand new look.

Add the Rectangular vinyl pattern to cover the wording

Step 3: Cut out the Monday through Sunday labels (affiliate) from the Cricut machine (affiliate). I used black vinyl.

I used Copper Black font, which you can find on most Windows computers (affiliate). The letters worked better because they were thicker and easier to read against the black and white patterned background. Feel free to check it out here if you want to make it on your Cricut machine (affiliate).

Step 4: Weed the excess paper and, using the transfer tape. Press down to lift the days of the week words. One by one, add one word to each spring sign. I made sure to center it on them.

Press firmly and remove the transfer tape.

The cost was minimal. I found these in Michael's clearance section at the nearby store. The price was $2.00 each and I bought 7 of them. So it cost a total of $14.00. All the other supplies and tools (affiliate) I had in my home.

How else can I use these days of the week closet dividers?

If you don't want to use them for clothing or in your closet, they can be easily repurposed for various purposes around your home. Here are some ways you can use these throughout the house.

Use these signs to organize your papers. You can add these to magnet clips because they have a rope and can clip the needed documents to that day of the week.
Use these dividers to organize kids' sports gear. Hang the signs in front of the hooked items in a mud room, so the kids know what to bring on which day.
Add to a meal planning board. You can add these hanging signs to your meal planning markerboard (affiliate) or chalkboard for a cute way to share what the meals will be that week.
