Needlepoint Desk Sign Tutorial

I’m always looking for gift ideas for friends and family! Recently, my sweet cousin started her first year as a teacher and I knew I wanted to make her a needlepoint item for her classroom. Ultimately, I was able to create this pencil desk sign and gift it just in time for the start of school. What’s so great about this project is that I was able to use my finishing method for finishing standups with an acrylic base to create this sign. As a result, it ended up being an inexpensive, easy, quick, personal, and very unique gift. Whether you’re wanting to bring needlepoint into your home/office or just wanting to learn another way to finish stand ups, I’m sharing a step-by-step tutorial of how I made this desk stand up below.
