Not only did we get to deliver this great custom carved sign, but I got to ride a ladder and bucket truck in the process! This sign was carved from high quality Duna foam and brought to life with only the best Modern Masters Metallic Paints. What a great addition to this fine neighborhood landmark.
Every once in a while we get to go all out on a carved sign and this assignment was no disappointment. Our CNC router got us started, but the real work began with the hand tools. Each bean was individually hand carved out of the background. We undercut the folds of the ribbon and the underside of each bean to give this sign true three dimensionality rarely seen in signs today. Modern Masters Metallic Paints were used to give each element a warm sparkle.

Today we wrapped up the last of our Christmas presents. The signs our customers are giving away as presents that is. The custom carved sign above is a present to Doug Donohoe from his parents to express their pride in his acheivements as CEO of his own startup. Doug recently sold the companyto UPS after ringing up a long list of achievements during his rein. This plaque is quite an achievement itself. It is totally 3d carved with multiple layers of faux metallic finishes and patinas.
We just finished this custom carved sign in time for Christmas for one lucky little girl and her beloved horse Lagerfeld! I hope she enjoys receiving it as much as we enjoyed making it. We pulled out all the stops incorporatingan array of faux painting techniques along with fully carved models to create this stunning dimensionalsign
