I think enamel house numbers are beautiful, and I think it’s possible to find a suitable enamel sign for every house. However, house number are not the only numbers that can be placed on a number sign. There are many creative alternatives and one thing that becomes increasingly popular among our customers is to put the year of birth on the number sign. I think it’s a great idea and it leaves you with many opportunities as you can have a sign for every family member.

There are so many ways to decorate with these signs. You can place the sign over the bed, on a wall shelf, or on the door to the bedroom. You can also put all signs in the living room, on a wall shelf, on the mantel or some other nice, visible place where they can be put side by side to be admired by every visitor. These signs gives a touch of personality to every home and it’s a great gift to give the parents of a new born.

Of course you can use the same idea with other important years or dates as well. It can be the date of your wedding, the date when you first met the love of your life or the year when you graduated. The sign will be a memory of a milestone in your life and I really like that idea! The sign on the photo below belongs to a winner of a give-away. She did choose a sign with her year of birth on and I think she did a great choice, don’t you? Have a look at her blog to see more of her lovely home!
