It turns out that mama and I have share a common trait (not surprisingly): spending hours searching for the object(s) of our current obsession(s) on the internet. She tracked down an awesome retro sign site — check out these cool signs from American Heritage website below. They aren’t vintage, but, they don’t cost vintage prices which means you can afford all the more.
These signs below are from eBay, I ADORE the first “Please help keep this place clean.” I’m sure Tim would appreciate it in our home (since I’m the guilty party when it comes to doing my share of the cleaning in a timely fashion). And, really, HOT PEANUTS!!. It reminds me of being a kid for some reason. These signs are kitschy but maybe it just because I’m feeling really glad to be alive tonight, on this amazing planet, in our crazy times, but with a wonderful partner, that such lovely signs make me smile.

LOVE these vintage signs, and LOOOOVE your blog! Thanks for your hard work; keep it up!
Thanks for your comments; mind if I add you to my blogroll?
I liked hearing how your mom and you are the same, so sweet. My favourites among the signs are the Coffee Shop (open ’til we close) and the Fish Co. Excellent!
Very cool signs!
Hi!
I LOVE your site and I wanted to know if you could feature my baby girl clothing line. I am a L.A. native and a proud mother of a one year old baby girl. I have been having fun making her dresses and have decided to start my own business. I have been sewing for over 20 years and I recently turned my passion for fashion and design into a business. My Juju babystyle are vintage inspired baby girl dresses that include matching headband and bloomers at a reasonable price. I treat every dress as though I was making it for my little girl. If you want to buy your little one a unique dress that you haven’t seen on anyone else and that you may even want to hand down or keep forever then check out my site. I guess I’m nostalgic like that but I waited 35 years to have my little one and I want her to look like the adorable little girl that she is!!
