Stay Awhile Sign — Carved Wood Porch Sign

The Stay Awhile Sign for the Porch — An Invitation to Sit Down

A good porch is an argument for slowing down, and this is the sign that makes it out loud. Our Stay Awhile sign carves the two words in a loose, friendly script across solid wood, made to hang by the front door above the rocking chairs where the visiting actually happens.

Why Carved Beats Printed on a Porch

Porch decor lives in bright light and damp air. Printed signs fade and their surface layer lifts. Ours is carved into the board, so the letters stay natural wood against the finish and stay readable from the walk.

Where It Hangs Best

• Covered front porch — beside the door, above a bench or rockers
• Back porch or patio wall — under the overhang, out of direct rain
• Living room or den — over the couch, where guests settle in
• Guest room — the Small 16" over the dresser

The Specs

• Solid pine for the stains, poplar for the paints — never MDF
• Three sizes: Small 16" x 3.5", Medium 24" x 5.5", Large 30" x 7.25"
• 20 hand-applied stain and paint finishes; the carved letters stay natural wood
• CNC-carved lettering — never printed, never vinyl
• Sawtooth hanger installed; made in our Kentucky shop; free U.S. shipping

A Housewarming Gift With Southern Manners

It suits a new home, a porch makeover, a cabin or the neighbor who always has the coffee on. Twenty finishes match painted siding, brick or board and batten. For inside the front door, the Come As You Are Sign keeps the same welcome going.
