Metal hanging sign
 
I have seen a lot of the homes with a sign hanging from the lamp post in the driveway. I would like to have one of these completed for my/ new home. Can someone tell me where to get these done?

Go to market night at the square. Vendors there have them.

There are several local businesses that make these signs. Google: lamp post signs the villages fl

& many vendors & styles will appear.

We got ours here:
Custom Signs | Wildwood, FL - SIGNS by Jackie
But we had a $50 gift certificate given to us by the Villages Real Estate rep when we bought our house. I don't know if any other companies offer better or for lower cost. Our sign was made perfectly, and I think it's acrylic, not metal. Warning: make sure you remove these signs when there's a hurricane warning. They're thin enough to be deadly if they fly around in the wind.

OP, if you just want a sign the above suggestions are good if you want a LIGHTED sign then you want Signs by Jackie, ours is several years old and working perfectly.

Drive by the homes again at night. Can you read the signs easily? If not, the signs would not do you much good if an ambulance is looking for your house at night.

For that reason, we got a lighted sign.

Got mine at Jackie's, I believe a family business connected to the T V family business.

Hit or miss on friendly customer service. Was there twice with my parents (who couldn't be any sweeter to deal with, they are not like me lol) to order and pick up their sign. BOTH times we received quite the "spoiled" attitude from the woman who takes orders who was, unless someone else was in her chair, Jackie.

Both times we received the old we don't need to be nice, we have a guarenteed business success thing going on. Take our attitude or leave it - kinda treatment. Totally uncalled for.

We went in as excited Villages "newbees" in the friendliest town bubble the first time and came out quite frustrated by the experience of placing the order. We did give her the grace of maybe it was just a "bad day."

The second trip in, NO... pure and simple rudeness! My parents were rattled and that says a lot!! It was then that I remembered Jackie's isn't located in the friendliest town bubble, she just has guarenteed profits off the bubble.

Based on our expierence it became evident that when living in T V "friendliest town" to also look at non-nepotism businesses as well. The UPS store offers custom signs too. If or when mine breaks I will not be back to Jackie's to replace it.

We bought our sign from Jackie’s. We really like the way it looks.
