PAST PROJECTS AND REFERRALS

  • Bumble's Dry Goods

    Carolyn McNagny, the owner of Bumble’s Dry Goods was in the market for a custom sign that captured the spirit of her shop, and would complement the feel of Downtown Chelsea, MI. She had reached out to a number of sign companies, yet had not received the customer service she sought or deserved. Perhaps the job was too unique, or perhaps the job was not expensive enough, but no one was willing to take the time to work with her and bring her vision to life.

         Fortunately, we (via Sign Broker Shawn Amidon) were able to turn this experience around. Her story and her ideas really energized the team, and we went to work designing her new sign and storefront. The design and fabrication teams caught the excitement and passion, and, in the end, we created a sign that everyone in the shop was proud of creating. Carolyn was overjoyed with the result and has people asking about her sign on a regular basis.

         Now we are working to design a sign for a neighboring business who was taken by the simple elegance of the Bumble’s Dry Goods rabbit. (La Maison)

         This is not the biggest project we have worked on, but it is one of our favorites. The project embodies the best of what we can provide for the public and the best of what we can produce at Signs by Crannie.

         Carolyn was an absolute Joy to work with and I was blessed to have the amazing team at Signs by Crannie behind me. Especially their Shop Foreman, Jamie Kozloski. He is a creative genius and master fabricator. Each wood grain seen on that sign was hand painted by the man himself. This Project led to work for La Maison and Robin Hills Farm. Signs by Crannie was transformative for my business journey and educated me in the sign business in ways I can never fully express in either in score or gratitude. Thank you to Dan Crannie, Gary Gebhardt, and Jamie Kozloski for the years of support and mentorship.

  • Robin Hills Farm

    Robin Hills Farm was a pleasure to work with in 2017 while working for Signs by Crannie. We were tasked with creating the Entrance Signs, Wayfinding Signs, and EMC Digital Sign visible from the road. This was also on of Shawn's greatest victories for a client in front of a Zoning Board, as they were initially 100% opposed to the inclusion of a Digital Sign. The team at Robin Hills was a very enthusiastic and open to suggestions and Signs by Crannie's fabrication and installation team delivered world class results.

"Shawn Amidon is awesome! I am a new business owner, and I wasn’t exactly sure how I wanted my sign to look, but I had a few ideas. My ideas didn’t always work, but I was OK with that because Shawn was able to take me through the design process in creating a custom sign. He would show me how and why a particular shape or background color related more cohesively to the overall look. My sign had to have a sense of style and class, yet somehow make a statement as to what may be inside. It had to be unique. It had to be the right color combination. It had to be the right size in relation to my entire store front, which actually used to be two separate businesses many years ago. It had to “pop” for lack of a better word! My new sign has all of these desired features.

As an Interior Designer I know that it’s all in the details! It was important for me to work through the custom design process and Shawn was patient in giving me the time I needed to absorb it all.

I highly recommend ‘Signs by Crannie’ and their team of designers, fabricators and installers!"
