This sign was done last year. It is a 8'x 8' pressure treated post claded with cedar and stained.The face of the sign is approx. 4.5'x6' Tonque and groove cedar fresh from the local mennonites. The oval is 2" thick cedar(3'x5') blasted - stained, painted and cleared.
I would of liked to seen this sign gold leafed.
The phone number was an add on which i don't care for.
The owner came across 1 lamp that he liked and found a place that would fabricate the 2nd one.
FYI- the flower shop is located behind the funeral home which the owner runs and owns. As i was fabricating this sign people were coming in and asking, soon it was known as "Country Cremations"
Thanks for letting me share this.

Like Jeff said, the whole thing is a great looking package!
Nicest pylon type sign I've seen.
Sure beats a light-up box on a pole!
The handdrawn fonts and scrolls have some nice movement to them. Great job, Rob!

Thanks for your kind words...
Jeff: The dark blue trim is also made from cedar.Pieces were cut to shape then L notched to fit. It was a little tricky to fabricate those pieces but it paid off in the end. Posted by Henry Barker (Member # 174) on :
