Coffee Station Updates

Coffee Station Sign and Mug Crate | Denise on a Whim
When I redecorated my kitchen, I moved my coffee station to a different area and added a thing or two , like the painted crate, a vintage sugar dish and a cute new sign.

Why Limit Happy?

Why Limit Happy Rustic Sign | Denise on a Whim
It's Friday! And I, for one, couldn't be happier.
Not just because it's Friday.
There's lots of other reasons, too!

Big Sky Country Sign

Big Sky Country Sign from Denise on a Whim
I've been a busy little elf this year making custom signs for Christmas gifts.
Although I like all of the signs I make,
I do have favorites, of course.
And this Montana sign is one of them!

A Housewarming Gift and A Custom Sign for Another Friend

Home Sign from a Repurposed Wine Barrel | Denise on a Whim
A few weekends ago, I went to a housewarming party at a wonderful little cottage on the lake.
My friend's son and his girlfriend bought a house and, after remodeling most of it, finally got to move in. Emily, the lady of the house, has great taste!
After having seen the way she decorated the house, I chose to make them this sign from a piece of an old wine barrel that my friend had given me.

Home, Memories & Laughter Sign

Rustic Wooden Lettered Home Decor from Denise on a Whim; Home is Where Love Resides
With a job making commercial signs during the day,
and then turning around making painted wooden signs when I get home,
I'm sometimes surprised I don't make signs in my sleep too!
The sign I'm showing you today turns out to be one of my favorites of all time.

A Humorous Welcome Sign

A Humorous Rustic, Pallet Wood Welcome Sign from Denise on a Whim
Maybe it's just me and mine, but our house is
LOUD!
That's why I came up with this little welcome sign.
It's both a welcome and a warning!

Autumn's in the Air!


Bright Autumn Pallet Sign from Denise on a Whim
 With school starting and bit of a chill in the air this week,
I believe I'm getting into an autumn frame of mind!
These 2 pallet signs are helping a little bit as well.

A Craft Show and Freshening Up My Booth

A Craft Show and Freshening Up My Booth with New Signs | Denise on a Whim
 This past weekend I had a show at the Lowell Riverwalk Festival.
The show is a lot of fun to do because I get to see a bunch of people I know
and my space is right on the river.
It was a gorgeous day for an outdoor show, too!

New Store Signs

New Signs for Caledonia Vintage Marketplace | Denise on a Whim
I recently received a request to make a couple of new signs
for the store where I have my booth.
When the store owner emailed me this crown and wings graphic,
I wasn't too sure about the outcome.
But it turned out pretty cool!

In Full Bloom

Live Life in Full Bloom Spring Sign from Denise on a Whim
My post today is not only about spring,
although this sign is perfect for dreaming of warmer weather and spring blossoms.
But the sign and the post have a little more meaning for me than that.

Turquoise Birds on a Branch

Turquoise Birds on a Branch | Denise on a Whim
I cannot deny it.
I have spring fever!
Today the temperature is in the twenties here and it feels warm.
There's something so wrong with this picture!
So I decided to change the picture a little bit
and brought spring right into the house despite Old Man Winter!

Repurposed Window Cottage Sign

Custom Cottage Sign from a Repurposed Window  | Denise on a Whim
Maybe it's the freezing cold weather that we're currently stuck in.
Maybe it's the old window frame.
Or maybe it's just cottage-envy, plain and simple.
But I think this might just be my favorite custom sign ever!

Passionate, Weird Life Salvaged Wood Sign


Passionate, Weird Life Salvaged Wood Sign from Denise on a Whim
If there is one word that my friends might use to describe me, 
it would probably be weird.
But, you see, I'm totally okay with that.
I think they mean it as a compliment...

Vintage Suitcase Sign

Vintage Suitcase Repurposed as a Sign | Denise on a Whim
A friend of mine gave me this really nice vintage suitcase.
I just love the coloring on it.
The way it has naturally aged is quite beautiful!

Love Is in the Air Valentine Signs: Under the Light of a Thousand Stars

Reclaimed Wood Sign with Love Song Lyrics from Denise on a Whim
I'm just a tiny bit in love with Ed Sheeran right now.
I adore his love songs and his lyrics so I couldn't resist using a line (or two)
from one of my favorite songs, Thinking Out Loud,
to create a new wooden sign.

Love Is in the Air Valentine Signs: My Favorite Daydream

You're My Favorite Daydream Salvaged Wood Sign from Denise on a Whim
I was lucky enough to get a call from a friend of mine
who is renovating her new house.
Her husband had removed a bunch of wood from one of the basement walls
and she was curious if I wanted it.
Of course!
As it turns out, the wood is absolutely gorgeous!
Most of it is bare but a few pieces had been painted,
so I turned a few of those boards into some Valentine signs!
