I added a new Address Plaque to the 1905 Cottage.
I just love the way it looks by the front door!! Here’s how I created the Address Plaque:
I used a design called “Heaven Boy” from Shutterfly.
Instead of photos, I used several placements of a plain, dark grey image and then adjusted the colors of the center, raised piece. I chose the font I wanted for the center piece — normally for a name or saying — and increased the font size as large as I could. I love the result!
And I love the polka dots too!! They are added automatically through this design.
My house numbers sign is hung under a porch, which keeps it out of the elements. But just in case, I also sprayed it with an outdoor polyurethane spraypaint to protect it from the elements.

What font did you use for those numbers?
any chance you’d be interested in replicating that house signage for sale (to me)? I’d love to have exactly the same signage. please let me know.
My house was built in 1910. I love the charm of an old house! =)
Genius! What a fabulous tweak. Keep them coming!
What is the color of your front door? I just love it, and your blog. All your projects are so fun!
Awesome! You are so creative ~

Oh thanks Pat!!
I hope you are having a great week!

I have to admit, there is nothing like a clearly legible house number. Not for the owners, but the visitors. That has always been a pet peeve, when I am unsure if your house is 1905 or not. Yours is classy and beautiful!
XO,

That is so true!! It’s so frustrating to try to find a house with no number. I agree!!

Looks great!
