About this Product
Welcome Sign with Flowers
Perfect for friends or family moving into a new home, this sign adds a personalized touch to their space and makes them feel welcomed. Hand-painted with a uniquely distressed purple background, this welcome sign features teal blue hand lettering and colorful painted flowers.
For someone who appreciates art and handmade items, my signs offer a unique piece of workmanship that shows you put thought into your gift. My work does not give machine-produced perfection - freehand painted designs and natural materials make for one-of-a-kind pieces. Plus, I am meticulous about my materials, painting, and finish - Your piece will be uniquely handmade, very different than what you'll find in a store, but of very fine quality.
SIZE:
- Will measure roughly 6.5 inches long, 5.25 inches high (dimensions are not exact).
- Thickness will be 1/2-5/8 inches.
COLOR:
- Background is a warm purple color, distressed and antiqued with black for a rustic look.
- Lettering is freehand brush-painted in light teal blue with white highlights
- Flowers are bright colors - pinks, oranges, yellows, etc - with green stems and leaves.
FINISHING DETAILS:
- Triple sealed with brush-on satin varnish for a beautiful, smooth finish.
- Your choice of jute twine or sawtooth hanger.
OUR PROCESS: We create all our signs start to finish, each one painted freehand without patterns or stencils, ensuring a unique piece of decor that can't be found in any department store! When you purchase one of our signs, you're buying a little piece of art right out of our studio!
OUR WOOD: All our signs are painted in reclaimed wood found throughout Washington state - torn down homes and barns, old fences, cast-offs from builders, etc. Each piece of wood is unique, with variations in grain, cracks, knots, slight bowing, and individual character - perfectly imperfect! This particular sign is made from western red cedar wood.
INDOOR OR OUTDOOR?: Generally, our items are designed to be displayed indoors, and not recommended for full outdoor exposure to the elements. If you want to display this outside, please know it will weather much faster than if kept undercover. By request, I can seal with an outdoor varnish to help delay weathering (FYI, it is glossier than our indoor varnish).
***MADE TO ORDER*** This item is custom made for you once we receive your order, it is not ready to ship. Please note current turnaround time above!
Our Backyard Studio
Meet the Maker
Creating something original and beautiful from discards is a passion shared by our family. Our Backyard Studio was born quite literally out of our back yard, with a summer spent with my husband and children scavenging, cutting, and painting all manner of things we found on our property. From there, it has grown into a full-fledged art business. All my work is painted the very old-fashioned way, completely free-hand without the use of stencils, patterns, or computers. We offer an ever-expanding collection of freehand lettered signs on reclaimed wood, personalized hand painted ornaments, custom peg dolls, and illustrative artwork on a variety of surfaces. We especially love to make seasonal & holiday decor!
Thank you so much for choosing us to create that one-of-a-kind piece of art for your home or special gift! Your patronage allows us to earn a living doing what we absolutely love, while providing for the care and home education of our children. We love our balance of work, home, education, and play, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support!

How it’s Made
This item is handmade start to finish right here in the USA - it is NOT a mass-produced factory reproduction. We use quality materials and meticulous attention to detail to ensure you a lasting treasure. As with all hand-made artwork, brush-strokes are visible, and little imperfections that are characteristic of an item uniquely and lovingly made by the human hand.
Your item will be made in the same manner as the sign in photo, but will not be exactly as it appears in the picture. Freehand painting and natural wood make each item look a little different!

Handmade Disclaimer: Due to the handmade nature of our products, each item will likely have minor differences and imperfections – our philosophy is that this adds the charm and individuality of artwork made by hand instead of a machine. In many cases, we have used reclaimed/repurposed materials to create our art, thus no two items will turn out exactly the same. Returns due to these characteristics will not be accepted, as they are the very nature of our work. All that said, we do not equate shoddy workmanship with “charm” – we create with quality in mind. Detailed photos are provided so that you can see exactly what you are getting – and because every computer monitor is different, we also describe the item as clearly as possible.
By placing your order, it is assumed that you have read and agreed to the product details and shop policies, and have examined these photos. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you might have before you purchase, We am happy to help you!
