Broom Parking Halloween Sign

The Broom Parking Sign is a lettered decoration rather than a figure, which means it does something no ghost or skeleton can: it makes people read rather than look. A joke that lands takes a second longer than an image and stays with visitors longer.

Signs also suit positions nothing else fits: beside a front door, on a fence, at the end of a path, in a downstairs loo. Anywhere a small flat rectangle works and a statue does not.

The lettering is printed or moulded deeply enough to stay legible outdoors in low light. Velleora Home Decor supplied fixing holes for a nail or a cable tie. If used outside, choose a sheltered position and bring it in at the end of the season rather than leaving it through winter.
