Why a Personalised Timber Home Sign Is the Ultimate Sunshine Coast House-Warming Gift

Moving into a new home is a milestone worth celebrating. If you’re searching for a meaningful house-warming gift on the Sunshine Coast, look no further than our Personalised Timber Home Sign – a handcrafted keepsake that blends coastal style with genuine sentiment.

Each plaque is made in our Buderim studio from solid Australian hardwood and finished with premium 6 mm gloss acrylic lettering for the names, and 3 mm premium gloss acrylic for the dates. The result? A sturdy, beach-chic sign that feels perfectly at home from Caloundra to Coolum.

Why personalised timber signs beat generic gifts

Always the right size. Unlike cushions or planters, a sign slots neatly onto a shelf, bookshelf or mantel.
Truly one-of-a-kind. Their family name and move-in year are front and centre – no two signs are ever alike.
Built to last. Hardwood won’t warp in humid coastal weather when cared for correctly, and acrylic lettering stays vibrant for years.
Low-maintenance decor. A quick dust is all it needs; no watering, charging or batteries.
Conversation starter. Guests inevitably ask where it came from – perfect for new homeowners keen to share their story.

Styling tips for your new home sign

Entryway hero: Lean the plaque on a hallway console and pair it with a eucalyptus bunch in a ceramic vase.

Shelfie ready: Layer it with photo frames and coastal-coloured books for an on-trend vignette.

Outdoor covered patio: The sign’s sealed hardwood is ideal for a protected alfresco bar or BBQ space.

Gift bundle idea: Pair it with some of our other products and a bottle of Sunshine & Sons gin to create a premium Sunshine Coast-themed hamper.
