The customer supplied at least six images to use for a memorial project on distressed barn wood to hang on her husband's hunting cabin to memorialize the former owner and friend of husband. We began by removing the gentlemen from there place in a photo of the cabin from a different perspective. Then we manipulated the gentlemen into another photo of cabin. We took the best three of remaining photos and added them in. Then we applied a border complimenting the cabin color around the images, printed the image and scorched the edges before applying the print to the barn wood. We hand painted the text and applied exterior spar varnish to protect the sign from harsh norther climate.

George Bonser
For Custom Vintage Brewhouse Or Pub Wooden SignI knew right away that working with Rick was going to be a good experience. The communication between us and each others feedback was probably the easiest time I have ever had someone start a project and finish a project in my life. Right from the get go Rick sent me a picture of the sign I was looking to have created. From there the next picture was a completed picture of the sign with the option of making some changes, which I did. My sign came out PERFECT. It is going to be a great Christmas gift for my wife. Blue Shed Mayhem is DEFINITELY at the top of their game. George Bonser

Andrew Bell
For Another signRick Shafer did an absolute phenomenal job on our sign. Hurricane Micheal did a number on our sign, I wanted basically the same but with a little twist... Rick did it again...... phenomenal job.
Sharil Kallstrom
For Custom signOk, first the good. Rick helped me to design something that was exactly what I envisioned, and he sent pictures so that I had a very good idea of what the finished product would look like. He was professional and timely in all his communication and the finished sign looked great. On the downside, it's a great sign but probably not worth $140 at the end of the day. Also, shipping was crazy - $20 for shipping that took over a week. This is largely out of the his control, but he might consider a different shipping method. Overall, I was very happy.
