Wall Plaque

Wall Plaque

$180

A simple wall plaque touting the importance of farmers was requested by a Milwaukee woman for her daughter's Christmas present. She wanted it small enough to stay within a budget and big enough to be readable for a rather long quote. I designed it with a straight forward easy to read type on an 12" x 4" poplar plaque with rounded ends and ogee routing. The quote was routed into the plaque with a CNC router and then painted to stain out on the lighter wood plaque. A keyhole was cut into the back for hanging and two coats of satin polyurethane made for a simple, but profound message. It will hang on the wall of her daughter and was completed in one weeks time.

    Absolutely amazing original work, more than exceeded my expectations and the pictures didn't do the finished product justice. Absolutely something to treasure forever.

    Everything went as planned and working with Joel Wakitsch was wonderful. He made exactly what I described in my email. He kept me informed and completed the project ahead of schedule so I could have by Christmas since it was a gift to my daughter. Thank you Joel!
