House Names with hand painted flowers
Floral Spray House Name Plate. Painted by house sign artist Sadie Bass. Our customer asked for a similar layout design as shown on a previous house name sign that Sadie painted a few weeks ago. The font is called Goudy Handtooled - my favourite font from our normal font list, it has an inline that gives a relief look to the lettering.
