Holiday Ordering Information for Creative Name Signs

As you know the 2013 holiday shopping season is upon us and at Creative Name Signs we continue to receive orders for our custom hand painted personalized name signs and room décor. With that being the case we have no choice but to put ordering deadlines in place. Otherwise our customers won't receive their orders in time for holiday gift giving.

Therefore the holiday ordering information for Creative Name Signs is as follows:

If ordering any item on our website as a Holiday 2013 gift you must place your order prior to Nov. 30, 2013. If you should choose to order any of our hand painted personalized items after Nov. 30, 2013 we cannot guarantee that your order will be completed and shipped in time for the holiday gift giving season.

Should you place an order after the Nov. 30, 2013 deadline with the hopes of having your item shipped in time for the holiday your order will be CONSIDERED only if you agree to pay an expedited shipping fee. We ship via United States Postal Service Express Mail. The expedited ship fee will be determined once we have your zip code.

***Please understand that this is the busiest season of the year for us so whether or not your order is processed will be left up to the artist's order schedule.***

If you have any other questions please feel free to contact us. We're happy to help however we can!!

It's That Time Again...Back to School!

Yes, it's that time of year for getting the kids ready to go back to school. I have to admit it can be bittersweet for me. On one hand I'm ready to get them back in some sort of a normal routine. I look forward to those beautiful autumn days where you can go for a walk and not end up being a big sweat ball. I enjoy going to the high school football games and feeling cozy in my hoodie and jeans. But on the other hand I get sad because I know this means cold weather will be upon us very soon. The days are much shorter and our daily schedules are overwhelmingly full. And my least favorite thing about the Back to School season is the fact that I have to set my alarm lock again for 5:30 a.m. Ugh!

Another signal that it's back to school season is my stack of orders through my Creative Name Signs website tend to be chock full of teacher name signs and door plaques. Many of these orders tend to be placed by a new teacher who wants a sign for his or her door. On other occasions the mothers of the students choose to give their children's teachers a 'Welcome Back to School gift'. I also had a principal of a small private school order a sign for one of her co-workers at a different school within her district. Whatever the reason this is the only time of year--aside from the holiday season-where my teacher name and door signs seem to a most popular seller.

Here is the teacher name sign design that is most likely the biggest selling design I offer:

Then this door plaque is the next most popular design:

This design is one of my favorites...I call it Crayon Theme Room Decor simply because it doesn't have to be a design solely for a teacher...it would look good in a child's room, a playroom, a day care center or whatever you can think of:

And I'm sharing these final few photos just to show you that any design you choose will work...take a look:

So if you're in the market for a teacher gift at any time of year feel free to contact me at Creative Name Signs. As you can see we a nice variety of designs from which to choose.

As for now my daughter begins band camp today, my youngest son begins golf practice tomorrow and my oldest son has to begin getting ready to head back to college in less than two weeks. Yes the "Back to School season" is definitely upon us!

More fun to come soon...until then,

If you have any questions please feel free to let me know. I am always glad to help however I can. Over the years I've pretty much bent over backwards to get orders shipped out even if it's at the last minute. Christmas has always been one of my favorite seasons and I understand when you find a great gift idea and it's only days away from the big day. If you are willing to pay expedited shipping...or at the very least push your luck with regular priority shipping...then I'm willing to do what I can on my end. Just don't be afraid to ask!

Okay...gotta run now...
