“The Good Old Days Are Happening Now” Wood Sign

A gentle reminder to slow down and soak it in 🤍
The moments you’re living right now… these are the good old days.

This custom phrase sign is designed to bring meaning, warmth, and intention into your home — a piece that feels both personal and timeless.

Each letter is cut individually, giving you the freedom to style and space it in a way that fits your home perfectly.

Finish
Letters come unfinished with a natural wood look or black — beautiful as-is for a soft, organic feel or ready for you to customize.

You can paint or finish them to match your space (we personally love spray paint for the smoothest, easiest finish). Make sure to use a FLAT paint, no matter what color you choose. Here is our favorite: https://a.co/d/0aLibd7M

Be sure to scroll through photos to see the unfinished look and detail of each cut.

Sizing & Layout
Sizing will vary depending on how you choose to space and style your words.

For reference:
• The layout shown in our photos covers approximately 18.5" x 14"
• The longest word spans about 18"

This piece is intentionally flexible — no two installs will look exactly the same.

Fun fact: the sample shown was completely freestyled by hand — no rulers, no tools. Just spaced by eye 🤍

Details
• Each letter is cut from 1/8" birch wood
• Precision cut using a high-quality laser for clean, crisp edges
• Lightweight and easy to hang

Tools Recommended, but not Needed:

Loctite Putty or other adhesive that can be applied and removed from the wall.
If you'd like it to be painted black, here is our favorite paint: Flat Black Spray Paint
Laser Level (If you want a more precise alignment) - Laser Level Link Here
Painters Tape to assist with straight line

How to Hang:

Easy Method (Recommended):

Use Loctite mounting putty — you only need a small amount on the back of each letter/word. This makes it simple to adjust and reposition as needed.

For a More Precise Look:
If you want perfectly aligned rows, here’s our go-to method:

Choose your wall space and make sure your phrase will fit
Start with the first word or line of your phrase
Turn on a laser level and ensure it’s straight using the bubble guide
Use painter’s tape (or any visible tape — not clear) and align it along the laser line
Place your letters along the tape, using it as your guide
Repeat for each line of the phrase

Tip: If your laser level is magnetic, it may stick directly to your wall depending on the surface. If not, having one extra set of hands helps a ton!

A Little Reminder 🤍
This piece isn’t meant to be perfect — it’s meant to feel like home.
However you hang it will be just right.
