When planning a beautiful garden, one area that is sometimes overlooked is signage. Garden signs can be both practical and whimsical. They can be as simple as adding the gardener’s name to the landscape or as elaborate as a hanging sign surrounded by a wreath of small garden tools. Think about your personal style and come up with a great idea for a garden sign that matches. Whether you love angels, fairies, or bugs, you’ll find a clever idea here. These signs will put a smile on a visitor’s face and give you a moment of laughter while you’re hard at work in your garden.

These signs have a broad mixture of techniques, from stenciling to cut metal. A truly unique sign is made from moss cut into the shape of letters and hung on the garden wall. You can make a great sign for your garden even if you have only a few minutes and an old shovel at your disposal.
