In this tutorial I am going to teach you how to make a cool door hanger for your bedroom door. Or if you're a hotel/motel owner you can make these for your rooms! Please note these images have been downsized for web used.
Step 1
The first step is to create a canvas to the following specifications:
Step 2
The second step is to change the background to a neutral grey, this is so you know which parts to cut out, if your door hanger is going to be grey make it a different colour
Step 3
It's time to create the shape of the door hanger. To do this you create a perfect circle, with the Elipse Tool (U), that has the same diameter as the width of the canvas. Fit it in place like so:
Step 4
To create the bottom part of the door hanger just create a Rectangle using the Rectangle Tool (U) like you see in this image
Step 5
Now you need a hole for the door handle to fit through so you just create a circle that you know will be just a bit bigger than circumference of the handle. Like below:
Step 6
Now you can add any decorations that you wish to add, I added a SHH! For when I’m sleeping (or browsing 13dots) and don't want to be disturbed and a cute mouse showing SHH.
Step 7
Print, cut out and hang!
