How to Choose the Perfect Size Sign for Your Space

Title: How to Choose the Perfect Size Sign for Your Space

You’ve found a wooden sign you absolutely love online, but a moment of hesitation stops you from clicking “buy.” How will it really look in your space? Will it be impressively large, or disappointingly small? It’s a common challenge, but we’re here to make choosing the perfect size simple and stress-free.

Measure Twice, Hang Once: Thinking About Your Space

Before you fall in love with a size, think about the wall where your new sign will hang. Is it a wide, open space above a couch, a narrow spot in a hallway, or part of a gallery wall? Common placements include:

• Above a couch or headboard: A larger sign makes a great focal point.
• In an entryway or hallway: A medium or small sign can add a welcoming touch without overwhelming the space.
• Over a doorway: A smaller, wider sign can fit perfectly.
• As part of a gallery wall: Mix and match smaller sizes with other art and photos.

Pro-Tip: Grab some painter's tape and mark out the sign's dimensions on your wall. This gives you a real-world feel for its footprint and helps you visualize the final look before you commit.

This handy visual, which you can find in the image gallery on every product page in our Mountain & Trail Signs collection, shows our most popular sign sizes next to a 6-foot person for scale. It’s designed to help you instantly understand the real-world size and impact of each option, so you can see exactly how a sign will relate to your furniture and your room.

A Rule of Thumb for Wall Art

Want to hang your sign like a pro? Here are a couple of simple interior design rules to help:

• Over Furniture: Art hung over a sofa or console table should be about two-thirds the width of the furniture it’s hanging above.
• Give it Space: Leave at least 6-8 inches of blank wall space between the top of your furniture and the bottom of the sign.

Find Your Perfect Sign

A little bit of planning is all it takes to ensure you’ll love your new wooden sign for years to come. By measuring your space and using our visual guide, you can be sure you're choosing a piece that fits your home perfectly.
