About this collection
I don't use ready-made fonts. Each name is sketched and then carefully bent into a continuous script using durable 3.2mm aluminum wire, which I then encase in a soft, knitted cotton yarn tube. Because I make these by hand one-by-one, you can choose any color palette or even add a little motif—like a heart, star, or flower—to perfectly match your child's room theme.
Every piece starts with a simple length of wire. I bend it by hand to capture the fluidity of handwriting, ensuring each letter has that organic feel. Once the frame is ready, I use a knitting machine to create a smooth, continuous tube of cotton yarn—what many call an iCord—and thread it over the wire. This creates a soft, plush finish that is much friendlier than raw metal, making it perfect for nurseries and bedrooms.
These signs are lightweight, so you won't need heavy tools to put them up. A few strips of masking tape, a tiny nail, or fishing line are usually enough to secure them to a wall or door. From pastels for a baby's crib area to bold, bright colors for a toddler's playroom, the yarn choice is completely up to you. I love adding little extras like stars, hearts, or small floral motifs to the end of a name to give it that extra bit of personality.
They are a favorite for baby showers, first birthdays, or room reveals. If you aren't sure which color will pop against your wall, tell me your theme—whether it's ocean, jungle, or space—and I will help you pick a combination that ties everything together.
