Your Story
The last run is done. The boots are kicked off. The air is buzzing with the electric feeling of a day well spent on the mountain. This is the moment, and with this sign, you declare it official: the celebration starts now.
The Après-Ski Celebration Sign is the official signal to let the good times roll. It's for the host whose home is the go-to spot for post-slope gatherings, where friends gather, stories are exaggerated, and the clinking of glasses is the official soundtrack. It's a tribute to the joyful chaos and easy camaraderie that defines the perfect après-ski.
Reasons to choose this:
- The official signal that après has begun — no further announcement required
- The host gift that actually gets hung on the wall
- Turns any bar, entryway, or patio into an alpine lodge instantly
- A permanent tribute to the best part of a ski day
- Bold enough to be a centrepiece, refined enough to stay there year-round
- The gift for the person who already has everything — except this
- Because every ski cabin deserves an official après-ski declaration
How to Order
✍️ Add a Personal Inscription (Optional)
I can carve a personal message on the back of your sign — a dedication, a family motto, or a note that only the people who matter most will ever read.
One of my recent signs read: "To the Oneill kids — May this mountain always bring us back together, for laughs, adventure, and memories that never fade. Love, Mom & Dad."
How It's Made
Every sign is CNC carved from solid wood in my solar-powered workshop in British Columbia. The design is carved into the wood itself—not printed on the surface—before each sign is sanded, painted and finished by hand.
Wood Options
| Wood Type | Swatch | Characteristics |
| Knotty Eastern Pine |  |
Best for indoor use. Rustic character with prominent knots and warm grain. Softer wood carves more easily but less precisely for fine details. |
| North American Ash |  |
Can be used outdoors. Durable hardwood with beautiful grain, weather-resistant when sealed. Very few knots. Dense wood so carves precisely. |
| North American Eastern Maple |  |
Best for indoor use. Smooth, clean appearance with very few knots. Dense wood so carves precisely. |
| Knotty Alder |  |
Best for indoor use. Warm, sandy tone with subtle grain and occasional small knots. Medium-density wood that carves cleanly with good detail. Only available in narrower 4–5" boards; larger signs require laminated (glued) panels. |

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
All signs are finished with exterior-grade paint and a clear coat on the front and edges. If your sign will be displayed outdoors, choose North American ash and ask me to paint the back as well.
Wipe the sign with a damp cloth and clean up spills promptly. Avoid extreme changes in temperature or humidity, as solid wood can move naturally over time. Some fading and weathering should be expected when any painted wood product is exposed to sunlight and the elements.
