No matter what you have in mind for your sign, or whatever the occasion, you or your gift recipient will be happy for years to come. There's nothing quite like the feel, smell and look of wood. Customized further with names, personal messages, images, and the right hanging hardware, leave just the right impression - whether for an indoor or outdoor sign, for your home or business, or as a gift.
We work with many types of wood, including live edge and salvaged pieces. I started carving wood by hand with my father. We would go out on horseback to make trail signs for the California State Department of Parks and Recreation. Now I use the latest technology to craft custom designs from my workshop for people and businesses all over the world.

After working in retail management for over 30 years, I returned to an interest I had shared with my father as a boy. He was a woodworker for the California State Parks Department. Just for fun, I started to make custom wood signs for many people and businesses in my workshop. Soon I discovered there was a market for custom made, hand carved signs.
We're all about working with you to create a sign that captures the feeling you're trying to convey, to get people to stop and take notice. Wood signs are different from ordinary signs. They're warmer, carved, 3-dimensional and textured. And of course, personal. We know wood. How to pick it, mold it, polish it and seal it.
Here is a sample of the extensive selection of fine wrought iron brackets and wall mount sign holders we offer. All are made from the highest grade rugged steel or wrought iron. The black powder coated finish is rust-resistant and designed to hold up in all types of weather. Some blade sign brackets are made using lightweight stainless steel or aluminum before being polished.
Feel free to simply send us a message or request information about your sign design. The more information you provide, the better we can help you create your customized sign. Let us know if you're interested in a 2- or 3-dimensional sign. If you're not sure, see what a difference 3D can make. We would love to hear how you found our website, whether that was by searching Google, an ad you saw, or some other way.

Tom Watson created a phenomenal sign for my wife's new venture! This will be a Christmas gift for her, and I know she'll love it like I already do. Tom listened carefully to my ideas, provided suggestions and alternatives, and wow did the end result come out way better than I expected. Thank you so much, Tom, for her beautiful sign!

We came to Tom with a sketch on a napkin and ideas flowing in our head and he turned our scribbles into a beautifully crafted piece of art that we will cherish for years to come. We are so grateful for Tom's patience and guidance as we changed our vision throughout the process. I would highly recommend Watson's Wooden Words for a great experience, reasonable prices, and beautiful craftsmanship. Thanks Tom-we love our sign!
