CUSTOM ANY DESIGN : Live Edge Wood Sign for Quotes, Memorial or Retirement
As a designer and artist, I have a deep appreciation for the process behind quality craftsmanship—and this sign did not disappoint. The entire production took around two months, with about a month of that spent allowing the wood to properly dry. While I do wish there had been more consistent communication throughout that stage, I was eventually able to get in touch with the person overseeing the project and work through the delays professionally.
Visually, the sign is stunning. The engraving is clean and precise, with well-defined lines that show a real understanding of depth and proportion. The paint application is solid—color placement is thoughtful and sharp—but I would’ve preferred to see a few more coats to really build up the richness of tone and enhance durability. A gloss finish would have added that final layer of polish to really make the colors pop, so I may apply one myself to elevate the overall presentation.
The wood itself was carefully selected and skillfully prepared. It’s been thoroughly sanded and smoothed, making the tactile quality of the piece just as satisfying as the visual. Every detail is aligned, clean, and intentional, from the edgework to the carved typography. It also arrived right on time, which is always a relief when dealing with custom work.
Overall, this piece is absolutely worth the investment. The execution reflects a high level of craftsmanship, and any minor finishing touches can be easily refined to suit your personal aesthetic. If you're looking for a sign that blends functionality with true artistry, this one delivers.
A very classy, natural-looking award. This was a non-profit conservation organization award for our volunteer of the year and it was absolutely perfect. Also, I needed a rush order and the shop owners made it happen by the exact day I requested it. Excellent service!
Love the sign, wish there would have been better communication about how long it took to be completed (over 2 months).
I was extremely pleased with the final results. An estimation of production and delivery time would have been very helpful. I highly recommend ADC.
The sign is absolutely beautiful!! Has a live edge and will be an incredible addition to our beach cottage!! They hit a home run with this one!!
