History of Cedarwood Signs

Welcome to Cedarwood Custom Signs & Restoration, where craftsmanship runs deep in our roots.

My journey in the world of custom signage began in my father's workshop at Dimensional Graphics, where I learned the art of creating stunning cedarwood signs that have graced Minocqua and central Wisconsin for decades.

After years of diverse experiences - from serving in the U.S. Air Force to working at the Smithsonian and pursuing various career paths - I've returned to my true calling, carrying on my father's legacy of producing exceptional custom cedar wood signs.

This business is more than just crafting signs; it's about honoring tradition, embracing artistry, and creating lasting memories. Drawing from the invaluable lessons my father taught me about patience, craftsmanship, and the beauty of working with one's hands, I've honed my skills with some of the most talented sign artists in the area.

Today, Cedarwood Custom Signs & Restoration stands as a testament to those early days in my father's workshop, blending time-honored techniques with modern design sensibilities.

Our mission is simple yet profound: to transform your ideas into beautiful, inspiring, and uniquely noticeable signs that add elegance to any business or home.

Whether you're looking for a custom creation or need expert restoration for a cherished piece, we're here to bring your vision to life with the warmth and character that only cedarwood can provide.

Join us in celebrating the art of signage, where every piece tells a story and carries forward a proud family tradition.

We look forward to helping you create your own legacy and memories.
