Visit us here in beautiful Pinehurst North Carolina and
make your own house or home sign
Why not make a road trip for a long weekend.
We will help you design a beautiful carved or sandblasted home sign, and assist you with the complete creation of that sign from design to finish, in our sign studio conveniently located just 4 miles from the center of the beautiful Village of Pinehurst in central North Carolina.
Just think how satisfying it would be to have a beautiful sign outside your home or farm and be able to tell your friends in complete truth that you made it yourself with your own hands.
Three Maples is a Mountain Cabin sign
It can be as simple as one of our standard cast sign blanks which you can paint and letter, or it can be as complex as a carved wooden or HDU (high-density urethane) multi-level sign with a hand (or machine) carved emblem or logo.
The "Allen" sign is a cast generic sign blank from our selection of over 20 ready-made sign-blanks we have in our studio. The letters and emblem were cut on our laser, as was the fisherman. it was a simple project to put them all together & paint them.
Silverbell Ranch, Cornerstone Farm & Denali Farm signs
Don't worry if you do not have the requisite skills as we will step in and help you with any aspect of your personal sign that you can't quite manage on your own. 
Depending on the type and method of home sign you want it could include some or many of the steps listed below.
- Design
- Choosing the sign-blank (if using a cast sign-blank)
- Cutting or machining the shape.
- Generating the sandblast stencil
- Sandblasting or routing the sign
- Cutting custom letters to be appliqued to it
- Carving, machining, or lasering an emblem or dimensional scene
- Assembling everything
- Painting
- Preparing and applying any specialty finishes such as 23 kt. gold leaf.
- Finishing
- shaping and painting/staining the post or mounting structure
- Instruction on the correct way to install it when you return home.
"Paws on the Beach" is a sandblasted HDU Beach House sign with the dogs carved & added on as appliques and the paws were engraved into the beach with our laser. this sign has 6 different levels.
Pick-up & drop-off from airports is available, as is arranging accommodation from a comfortable B&B to rooms at the famous Carolina Inn in Pinehurst.
"Carolina on my mind" is a beach house sign
We can help you with bits and pieces while you do everything else or you can sit back and watch us make the sign for you from start to finish with you just helping with some of the more simple parts under our direction.
"Forever Young" and "Nied-a-Rest" are Lake House signs
Prices can range from $100.00 dollars to $2000.00 Although the majority cost between $300-$700 if we produce them for you.
The cost for you to produce your own sign depends totally on:
- The time it takes to get the design right
- The complexity of the sign (How many different processes we have to go through to produce it).
- Size and shape
- Type of material its made from
- The amount and type of paints used.
- Whether any gilding is required
You should be prepared to spend three days with us although during that time there will be plenty of time for sightseeing and whatever else you would like to do. The reason for this is that there has to be time for the numerous coats of paint to dry. 2-3 hours between each and we apply at least 5 coats.
The last two clients that worked with us to create their signs took 2 days and 3 days respectively
We charge $55.00/hr when we are actively working with you on your sign we do not charge you when we are working with other customers so the average cost of making your own sign is about $350-$450 however you should end up with a sign that would normally cost 50-100% more than that as we usually produce more complex signs when people are working on their own project

Signs of Pinehurst/Southern Pines/Aberdeen/Sandhills Area
You Know us better than you realize
Classic Signs and SignBlasters.com have been making beautiful well crafted and expertly designed signs in this area for longer than any other sign company. We have created thousands of signs in and around Moore county over the years. Below is a collage of a few hundred that you will possibly recognize, some of which are gone now but you might remember.
Did you ever wonder who made all these signs or did you think you knew? Perhaps you realize now it wasn't who you thought it was.
All of the signs below are local to Moore County or at least from the Sandhills area. We have been making signs here for over 30 years, in fact, the original company was started back in 1988 in Carthage and we moved it to West End in 1991.
We have been honored with many awards over the years including 3 -1st place national awards and 2 -1st place international awards. We also manufacture a lot of dimensional signs for other sign companies from most states in the USA. Signs that the other companies are not able to produce themselves.
Vinyl and digital signs
We letter vehicles, trailers, and trucks of all sizes along with window and directional signs as well as business signs of all kinds.
Real estate signs.
We have recently developed our own range of lightweight real estate signs utilizing Vinyl posts, cross rails, etc which assemble very easily and can be installed by one person. These 4'x8' signs are for larger pieces of land or businesses that are on the market. We also make 4x6, 3x5, and 4x4 plus we will manufacture custom sizes for you as well. Call us on 800 948 4307 and let our experts assist you with your sign project.
I will be posting several more collages like this one. If you recognize a lot of them let us know.

custom home builders site signs
Big or small it's very important to get who and what you are across to potential customers especially with custom home builders.
Most folks looking for a custom home builder go look at homes already built or under construction before they make a choice.
A picture tells a thousand words so here you are.
All of the natural western red cedar sandblasted signs you see below help navigate future buyers around the show homes built by this builder at each of their show home locations.
Each location has several show homes and each one gets its own 2x3 detail and photo sign mounted on two rough sawn cedar posts they look great.
