I did not see this firsthand because I had it mailed directly to my friend’s house. She had been unwell for a little while & so appreciated the hug with a personalized message on the back. I’m sure I will shop here again. Very pleased.

I keep buying this adorable hug in a box because it’s something different to send to a friend or loved one when they need a pick me upper. This time I got one to send Happy Anniversary wishes to a friend who lives far away. Thank you!

HOW DO YOU MAKE IT?
Our signs may be little but the love we put into make them is BIG!
The sign is made of MDF and the base is made of pine wood. First we cut , sand, and router each piece in our shop, then we paint or stain each piece. The we distress the edges slightly for extra cuteness. Finally we add the words, and package with care.
While we strive for consistency, each piece is naturally unique with it's own grain, and may come with holes or knots as this is natural to the wood.

No two messages will be exactly alike - and we love that!
