Custom Signs

I've completed several custom signs that I haven't shared yet. I love the way they all turned out.

It's so fun to create something that will be used and appreciated. My favorite step on everything I do is the finishing, because that's when it all starts to take shape. But my second favorite is delivering it to the client, particularly on custom signs. It's the reaction. It is so rewarding to take someone's vision and create something unique for their space.


This was the biggest project I've ever worked on. These two "shutters" for The Nest Antiques & Such were painted to go on either side of the storefront. I can't wait to get a pic of them hanging up outside!


This custom sign hangs above a fabulous outdoor kitchen and bar area. It was created on a repurposed cabinet door.


Here is yet another family established sign. This one is black with light cream letters.


Here's a custom sign that I designed for my mom-in-law to go on her front porch. They live in the country and she wanted people to know they were at the right place when they drove up!


This was based on a sign my sister-in-law saw and wanted me to recreate, but with my "spin" on it. I think I may need one too...


Here's another one for mom-in-law's front porch. What can I say? She's a great customer!!

If you've been dreaming about a piece for your home, why not let me create it?

Family Established Signs

I've seen this idea around and always loved it. I put some "Little House" spin on it, and here it is...
I did mine in a navy/black background with cream letters. It really pops in my living room with all the white and light gray.

Here's a close up:


I had the privilege of working on one for my friend Carly. She wanted a rustic red background.

The signs are painted, distressed and sealed with dark wax. They cost $40. If you're interested in having one made, send me an email at aliciaslittlehouse{at}gmail{dot}com. The signs are pretty heavy, so I'm not sure what it would cost to ship. I can find out though.
