Title: Villa Name Sign
Post by: usedbustickets on May 05, 2011, 09:06:40 AM: Trying to find someone who does Villa Name signs, ideally in brass (40x20cm) (on black) or something nice in plastic. Suggestions and directions appreciated, as I can then send Mrs Tickets out on a shopping trip with her mother tomorrow, as I supervise the water in the pool, ensuring that none is attempting to escape. ;)

Picture of feirce guard dog living here is not required, as I seem to do the job wonderfully just by looking at people .. apprently:D

No I'm not looking for an actual name for the villa - already got one Dun Psyin - but if I hadn't, then your suggestion Tinx would go right to the top of the list. Then again I need to first run it past my lawyers - Norfolk and Goode - in case of copyright issues.:D

As it's metal we can paint it and make it look fresh every couple of years. So very little maintenance. Trouble with brass is, unless you laquer it, it tarnishes very easily. Mrs Usedbustickets will have a regular job cleaning it.
