Hello!!
My name is Diane and my husband's name is Pete. My handcrafted signs are created by us and cover several styles from Shabby Cottage Chic, Paris apartment, beach cottage and Vintage. Though my signs are new, I take great care to give them that old vintage look through a multi step process. Pete cuts the wood for our signs and I do everything else!
We've been happily married for over 25 years and have two children. A daughter who's interning at a magazine in NYC (keeping fingers crossed that it turns into a real job!) and a son still in college.
I love old vintage and romantic treasures and here at SignsByDiane studios you will find the finest in handcrafted shabby cottage signs!
I'm lucky to be able to stay at home and do what I love. I love to create and make shabby, primitive and vintage styled signs. It's become my passion and I'm also an avid scrapbooker.
I'm always trying to create new looks and phrases for my signs. Recently Pete and I went on a special trip to celebrate our anniversary. We were fortunate to be able to visit two places that I always wanted to see...Italy and France! Seeing all of the amazing art and architecture was a visual feast and I hope to incorporate some ideas for my signs.
I also have a great love of the beach and have added and continue to add beach towns and themes to my sign listings. If there is any special look or phrase that you'd like please feel free to email me. I'm happy to make a special sign JUST FOR YOU!!
