Images Enhance Carved Wood Signs

Custom Wood Signs as Personalized Welcome Signs reveal much about your business, home, cabin, camp, lodge, or RV. Aside from telling customers, visitors, and friends who you are, it will tell them a little about the business, your personality, and your sentiments. 


There are many important factors to consider when planning your sign's appearance. The font is an influential factor in determining how the text will appear. Text in one font can deliver a different message altogether than the exact text of another font choice. Font choice alone can deliver formality, whimsy, rusticity, and hundreds of themes, such as Western, Cartoon, Sailing, Hunting, Fishing, etc. The size of your sign can also make a difference, but the larger it is, the more it will cost. This is because it will take more materials to build it and, therefore, more labor. Often, larger signs require laminating many cedar members of greater thickness to create a plaque large enough to make a solid and stable sign panel. It’s not unlike a bowling alley or a chopping block. Those elements, however, aren’t the only ones that should be considered when planning to have a custom personalized outdoor welcome sign commissioned.


Choosing to place an image on your sign can significantly increase the sign's visibility and the aesthetic interest of potential customers, friends, and viewers. Sometimes, the image will grab a person’s attention before the actual words even come into view, thus making that person want to read the words because they were captivated by the picture they just saw. This is why you might consider adding an image to your carved wood sign.


Images also have a compelling impact on the message on your sign. One picture can make an exciting message even more convincing. An appropriate image, properly incorporated into a carved wood sign, can actually serve as a demonstration of who you are and what your sentiments intend, profoundly supplementing the message with something that will show the viewer as well as tell them. This visual leverage will enhance your sign and your message in a positive way.


While adding an image or multiple images will raise the cost with distinct predictability, it is always worth the investment. The higher price is due to the increased carving time and complexity necessary to engrave images into cedar sign panels. The costs will vary, depending on what you want on your sign, how large the image is, and how complex the image is to carve. A simple image will obviously be the least expensive, while a complex image will require more work and added cost. The most costly option is custom-designed, original art unique to the message, the owner, and the carving artist’s repertoire. Here, graphics can be added according to your specifications, imagination, or inspiration.


No matter which option you choose, remember that your sign will last you a long, long time, so you will see a return on your investment. It’s all about attracting attention, customers, and visitors. Images often make or break a fantastic sign. And that, after all, is the whole point of the investment
