Today we installed some additional lettering for our old freinds at Ridge Marketing (ridgemarketing.com). Just a few years ago we won 1st place in a National Sign Competition and had an article written on the making of the rusty steel sign we fabricated for Ridge back in 2014. The great thing about a rusty metal sign, it always looks as good as the day you install it.
Big School Spirit
We were commissioned by Morristown-Beard School, a private school in Morristown, NJ to to carve and install this large scale medallion to face its main building and athletic field. It was carved out of flexible foam and given a flexible hardcoat with a stucco finish on top making it blend in perfectly with its painted masonry background. The flexible core of this carved sign allow it to take an occasional hit from from a foul ball and bounce back as if nothing happened. Basiically it looks great and can take a punch.
Wow, what an honor...
We are very proud to announce that our sign for Brookside Engine Company 1 in Mendham, NJ will be the cover of the world's oldest, largest and most respected sign magazine, Signs of the Times, for the upcomming November 2016 edition. This year marks the magazines 110th year of publishing and and we are very proad that they would consider our dimensional signs some of the finest they have seen in their long history of publishing. If you would like to see for your self and read the accompaning article on the making of this carved sign, the magazine publishes an online version you can access for free at

A sign as Beautiful as its Surroundings
This week we delivered the 1st of 11 new signs for the Madison NJ, Parks Department. Unlike the old wood signs that were split, cracked and in some cases spotted with mold, these new signs are totally sythetic and built to survive our changing seasons, acid rain and freeing cold, winters, hot humid summers and remain looking like a new carved wood sign.
Ooohh, New Store
Ooooh new store was a comment I heard from many a passer by while I was installing this beautiful new carved sign. The owner Tim Balshi opened his 5th store this week in historic Morristown, NJ. and wanted a dimensional sign that expressed the rich quality of their products. Other locations include, Lancaster, PA, Bethlehem, PA, Bethesda, MD and Annapolis, MD. Tim and his wife Aguilar offer their own brand of fresh award winning extra virgin olive oil. They are passionate about the health benefits of their oil and vinegar which they share on their website seasonstaproom.com. Visit one of their locations or order online, it'll be good for you!
