"Hibernation Mode" Sign | Carved Wood Bear Paw Decor

Here are the standard wood options

All our products are made from solid wood ie. no MDF or plywood unless specified for a custom order.

Wood by its very nature (being an all natural material) has its character traits ... some species more than others. Pine, fir and to a lesser excent cedar all have knots and significant colour variation is possible. We don’t use much cedar as it if no longer easy to get in BC.

Maple is more predictable with very few knots, and bring a fairly dense wood it machines precisely. Ash is similar with the added benefit of being more resistant to rot so good fit outdoor use.

We will start to make your sign AFTER any personalization has been approved via email [we send you a computer rendering within 72hrs of receiving your order]. It then takes about 5 days once you have given approval via email reply to carve, finish, pack & ship. During busy periods such as the Xmas rush this can increase to 2 weeks and larger / volume orders can also take longer.

NOTE: We are not responsible for delays caused by customs or other carrier-related delays out of our control. When your order ships you will get a calculated ESTIMATED time of arrival based on the carrier's own standards, but this is not a guaranteed arrival date.

We only ship with trackable methods such as Canada Post Expedited Parcel, UPS Ground, Purolator Ground, etc.

Contact us within 14 days of receipt with any damage or other product concerns. For returns we need to receive the product back within 30 days of you receiving it and it must be in new condition (unless of course it arrived damaged).

We actually make our products using mm but we will quote sizes in both mm & the closest inch dimensions. It's just way more precise to use mm in the workshop.

We use exterior grade paints and all sign products have an exterior clear coat on the front and edges.
We can paint the back side also if you ask.

As long as you avoid spilling anything on the wood or wipe off immediately then there should be minimal maintenance required ... wipe down with a damp cloth.
As with any wood product try to avoid excessive temperature fluctuations as the wood can distort. Some amount of fading is to be expected with any painted wood product exposed to the sun & elements over time ... much in the same way that the siding on a house or your car will fade in the sun eventually.
