Rustic Sign Design for The Muse

Looking to spend $200-$250 on this project. I’m updating the exterior sign for The Muse — Wine & Charcuterie Bar and want a warm, rustic look that pairs well with reclaimed-wood décor in an organic natural greenery setting. The artwork must feature:

• Our existing logo
• The business name “The Muse”
• The words “Charcuterie • Tapas • Wine”

Scope of work
1. Present two or three concept sketches showing layout, font, colour and texture ideas that evoke a refined yet relaxed countryside aesthetic.
2. Develop one chosen concept into a production-ready vector design suitable for large-format printing or CNC routing.
3. Supply final files in AI, EPS, PDF and high-resolution PNG, plus a simple spec sheet noting colours, materials and any finishing suggestions.

What will catch my eye
If you created the Lamb Center Sign for Susan Peters, please mention it and link to that piece. Otherwise, share a couple of rustic or vintage-inspired signage projects you’ve completed, highlighting any work with layered materials, distressed finishes or dimensional lettering.

Timeline
I’d like to review initial concepts within one week of hire and move to final art after a single round of refinements.

Looking forward to a design that invites guests in for a glass of wine and a perfect charcuterie board.
