I love how a garden sign can set the tone for an entire garden. It’s a simple way to infuse your personality—however sarcastic, salty, sentimental, romantic, or tell-it-like-it-is you are, into your little piece of the world.
These selections come from Etsy, so you can order the one that fits you, get inspired to make your own, or contact sellers who offer custom creations. For more, also see Favourite Garden Signs from garden tours.

Hi:) I noticed in my stats that I had a few visitors from your blog to the garden stone (Whatever you are, be a good one) I have in my shop, so I thought I would stop by and say thank you. I love your posts…very entertaining and they have lots of good info. Being from MN I definitely consider myself a northern gardener and I will bookmark your blog for future reading.
…thanks again, Jacinta blessingandlight.com
