Thoughts About Sunset Cabins

Homemade Signage

Sunset Cabins* is a fictious place that nourishes my day dreams. I made the little sign over ten years ago to remind me of a dream place where my mind can vacation.

Wondering about the psychology of cabin versus city life, a quick Google search provides me with a few avenues to explore.

 I'm not trying to decide on one or the other. I know there are benefits in both areas.

But, why lean towards one and not the other?

Frankly, I  want a mesh of woods and city life, an environment compatible with the security of services and population numbers that city life provides. Thankfully, where I live now is ideal.

*Note,  there is a real place, Sunset Cabins Maine on Lake Darmariscotta.

Crafting Signage


The sign is about a yard long by a foot high. A bunch of shells waiting for an idea, lines the top of the 3 glued and back braces nailed together boards, primed and painted with acrylics.
Strange that the rustic look, (hasn't been wear sanded yet), that I imagined now wants old weathered rope on the other 3 sides. 
There is an upholstery trim that will work called twisted lip cord. 
Light gray or blue? Sand looks ok, but white would be better.
Or should I paint and stress twigs or dowel trim to look like drift wood?
Opinions appreciated
Thank you
