IMAGES + FONTS = GREAT SIGN DESIGN
It's the graphics and images on custom made carved wood signs that create that unique or special gift! There is no restriction to what images you can have on your sign except that it cannot be too complex for the size of the sign. The examples, proofs, and gallery photographs are your best guide. There is no page of graphics you are limited to choosing from either. Just tell us what you want, and we'll render it into your full-color scale proofs so we can collaborate and submit additional proofs until you see what you want. Your description of the image and text is usually sufficient to create a proof to begin collaborating with you using additional proofs if necessary.
Images have a powerful impact on the message. One picture can make an exciting message even more compelling. We may inject some sign-writer logic to guide you toward balance and harmony. There are four price groups for carved images. Group 1 is a Simple silhouette with the lowest fee, and you may have Group 2 up to three silhouettes for a modest additional cost. Group 3 Scenery/Landscapes/Detailed Images are progressively more complex for carving and increasing production time. Group 4 is the Custom Designs/Logos/Caricatures/Fine Detail Images, which carry the highest fees due to carving complexity. It's a straightforward formula - the more detailed and complicated - the longer it takes to engrave it into the Cedar, the more it costs.
If you have questions or if you want to send us some images, sketches, or ideas to consider for proofs and a quotation, send an attachment by email to: [email protected] or call (682) 273-8900 between 8 am and 6 pm Central time, Monday through Friday. That number will also accept messages, so don't hesitate to reach out anytime with a text!
You can have any font family you like, but thousands of fonts exist. You are not stuck with using this list here. What's useful to us is knowing what you are considering for your project idea. If it is a script you are thinking of, give us the name of one here so we don't start proofing your idea without understanding your message's tone. Don't make yourself crazy trying to design it (unless that's what you like to do and know what font family you want!) It's about the magic of collaborating with a graphic designer and the value of seeing the text in a few different fonts offered during the proofing. Plus, it's the most fun part! Balance, imagery, harmony, oneness, white space. We are Letterheads - We've got this! These fonts here tend to lend themselves to our stylings of Carved Outdoor Rustic Signs.
