House Beautiful feature on signage
We’re delighted that our Hummingbird house sign, designed by Francesca Grace of Brighton, has featured in a round-up of signage ideas in House Beautiful magazine online. The article is full of pretty basic facts on how to choose a house sign and the usual conventional designs. It’s a shame they didn’t approach Selene Signs for more information, […]

Is it Art Deco, Art Nouveau or Arts & Crafts?
I first bought a stunning, colourful art deco wash jug from an antique shop back in the 19 … well a long time ago. Since setting up Selene Signs it’s been my ambition to recreate the design as a house sign, and finally it’s launched as our new Art Deco Fruit range. Here’s the original […]

We love your own sign ideas!
You might be forgiven for thinking that producing a personalised sign involves changing the numbers, names or address, and occasionally a different font or colour. But because of Selene Signs’ flexibility, we can design a completely bespoke sign for our customers. Indeed, some of our best-selling signs have been generated that way, as with Spanish […]
Pink or blue – which colour for you?
We first launched the Lotus design over two years ago, in its original pink shade. The image was drawn up by Ashcroft Designs, a small outfit based in the Buckinghamshire countryside but with plenty of experience in decorative designs for greetings cards and home accessories. We loved their Spice range, which was inspired by the […]
