  • Shop signage: stewarts sewing

    Posted by Bill McMurtry on May 20, 2007 at 11:28 am

    My first job in my own little sign shop start-up about 16 months ago. Tools were Roland GX-24 cutter, jig saw, paint brush and roller, a ladder.

    Job brief was to design a fresh look around the new business name and try to keep similar colours as existing. Installed new front of awning facing, new shop front paint, window vinyl, company logo signs, 2 new acrylic lightbox faces.

    The client budget was laughable – he was very happy with the result though. The things we do to get the ball rolling 🙄

    Well done Bill.

    You did this out of weathertex?

    I like doing the lettering on the fascia like that, going above the face, looks much more expensive that it is to produce.

    Good job, looks way more professional than the original.

    Thanks for sharing….

    Well Done.

    Looks pretty good to me Bill, I love doing jobs like this as well. Quite refreshing when you don’t have to contain everything in a rectangle 50 foot long and 2 foot high :lol1:

    Did you do the painting on the brickwork as well or just the facia?

    Thanks fella’s. Yes Shane, cut out of weathertex. I like stepping out of the box sometimes too Martin. I painted the yellow shop front, not the terracotta colour above the awning.
