Here's My New Anti-War Sign For My House! Got Signage?

[DistressedAmerican]

Just finished putting this up. I live on a second floor by a major road. It is quite visible.

It stays up until it is too weather beaten, this war ends, or I move out of the damn country!

I sure hope that it gives the customers at the Dunking Donuts across the street something to ponder over their morning coffee!

How about you? Are you sporting signage yet?

Post pics here if you have them!

ON EDIT: I have a page on my website full of tips and instructions on making cheap signs:

3. I think your plant is dead. :)

[DistressedAmerican]

6. Correction, You Think My Wife's Plant Is Dead. You'd Be Right!

[Karmageddon]

5. Might want to get bullet proof windows

or stay out of sight. You know how these guys like to "debate" the issues in such a polite and civilized manner.

Very nice though. I like it.

8. We Are Pretty Blue Here. Actually Got Some Waves While Hanging It!

Not too worried. Although, It is where they can't get to it. Freepers are short like their president, right?

So, that could lead to more serious measures if they flip out!

9. You betcha!!

B*SH lovers are the only terrorists I worry about in this country.

7. Very nice................

No signs of that nature around here yet, but I am noticing "fresh" new Kerry/Edwards signs and bumper stickers daily.

10. Very nice!

I'm moving into an apartment tomorrow with a very convenient balcony that is visible from the road. I've been trying to decide exactly what sort of sign I'll be hanging from it.

[DistressedAmerican]

12. Quick Tip. I Got All Of The Red While And Blue On Clearance Sale.

I bought bags of stuff for future use. Lost of flags of all sizes. Full sized ones for just a couple of bucks! It was like Christmas (without all that Jesus stuff).

Pays to keep the peepers open!

[Mutley]

18. LOL!

The dollar store near me still has leftover July 4th stuff on clearance. I'll go pick some up today. And I'll post pictures as soon as I get it up! :D

27. Better Check with your landlord

It may not be a big deal, but some apartment owners and/or managers have rules against tenants hanging anything form the balconies. It's a safety/aesthetic thing, rather than political. I had one who complained about beach towels I hung over my railing after I'd been to the pool.

[DistressedAmerican]

28. Sweet! Can't Wait

[SouthernDem2004]

11. What did you use for letters?

[DistressedAmerican]

14. Printed Them Out On My Printer At 550 Point. Oh Word I Love Thee!

One letter to a page. the whole sign is about 5 by 3 feet.

I actually have a little tuturial on my website if anyone is lloking for tips:

Pretty much as described there. Except that I covered the whole thing with sheet plastic instead of packing tape.

13. very nice.. and I love

the bold color scheme..

All RED, WHITE & BLUE and patriotic as all-get-out!

(p.s. buy your wife some new flowers, you)

[DistressedAmerican]

15. I Buy Her Cut Flowers. They Last JUST As Long As She Seems To Keep

the potted ones alive. And they stay in the house where I can enjoy them!

:toast:

[jojo54]

17. Very nice DA.

My place is on a corner on a fairly busy road at rush hour, bit you'd miss the house if you didn't know it was there. My sign is going to have to be 8 x 10. Ya know what they say--the bigger, the better.

[DistressedAmerican]

19. Hit Goodwill And Get Some Sheets And A Can Of Paint!

[jojo54]

26. Ah, Goodwill.

My favorite stomping ground.

[malta blue]

20. YEAH!!!!

I Love it!!! Glad to see our little shopping trip was successful. I wish I could do something like that, but the neighborhood association...blah blah...rules...regulations...yuk!

[DistressedAmerican]

21. Petty Bureaucrats At The Neighborhood Association Can Bite Me!

You knew I'd have a use!

Anyway you can watch my dog while I go to Crawford?

[malta blue]

22. I'm sure I can take in the pooch

We can talk later tonight to get the details down...btw, did you get my cards done? Need them for this weekend... :)

[DistressedAmerican]

23. I Haven't But, I Will! Thanks On The Dog. It Was The Last Detail!

[malta blue]

30. ...

[bluedonkey]

31. Nice sign

Have to see where I can hang one up.

[BiggJawn]

32. I have "1843" painted on my window.

It faces a State Highway coming into town.
People may slow down and look to see all the flowers and sunflowers growing out front.

Hope they see that number, that I have to scrape off and re-do with a higher number WAY too often....

[DistressedAmerican]

33. Good For You! Sadly Many Wouldn't Know What It Meant.

Unhappy camper made a great sign that has plastic pockets to hold printed numbers for easy (but sad) updates.

Keep at it!

:applause:
