Signs from Basswood and Pine with A Variety of Themes and Uses
Norwegian Blessing Wood Burned on a Basswood Canvas
This Norwegian Blessing plaque is wood burned on an oval shaped basswood plaque that measures approximately 12.5" x 9.5" x .69" and is colored with PrismaColor pencils. It humorously captures some of the language idiosyncrasies of those of us of this persuasion who now live in the US. This plaque is ready to ship, but you can have any blessing from your own heritage burned in similar fashion. Just convo me if you have a question or suggestion. And may da Good Lord protect ya from any and all unnecessary Uff Das today!

Wood Burned Cowboy Blessing Sign on Basswood Canvas
This wood burned basswood plaque, measuring 12" x 9" x .69", is colored with PrismaColor pencils , embellished with twine rope and a small wooden heart that is wood burned with a tiny cross. In the upper right corner, I wood burned a cowboy kneeling at the foot of a cross, with his loyal horse waiting in the background. This is a perfect choice for western-themed homes, for ranches, for equine centers and any other venue that features Western-style riding. Also the ideal gift for your fave cowpoke! This is a one of a kind plaque as this particular canvas is no longer available. It is totally done by hand with no routing involved. As my gift to you, you may personalize with a message of up to 30 characters to be wood burned on the back side. May the horse be with you. ^ - ^

How do I choose a font style?
By clicking on the image to the left, you will be able to peruse a very large selection of font types. You can even try your text in the font you like by clicking on "Custom Preview" on the right with the magnifying glass.You do not need to buy a font. Simply note the style name and category. While I can burn almost anything, some are just too fine or too ornate to do with the burner.The more detailed the font, the more time intensive the project. If cost is a major concern, that is definitely something to keep in mind. For questions about pricing, see either FAQ on the side menu bar or in the Help section.
